June Schwarcz
June Schwarcz (''née'' June Morris, June 10, 1918 in Denver - August 2, 2015) was an American enamel artist who creates tactile, expressive objects by applying technical mastery of her medium to vessel forms and plaques, which she considers nonfunctional sculpture.
Schwarcz studied industrial design at Pratt Institute in New York from 1939 to 1941 and afterward created packages, greeting cards, textiles, and window displays in New York. In 1943 she married Leroy Schwarcz, an engineer whose work necessitated several moves. While visiting Denver en route to Sausalito in 1954, Schwarcz was introduced to enameling. She began creating enamels with pre-made metal forms but soon began pounding out her own, developing an expertise in the base-taille technique. When she moved to New Haven, Connecticut, in 1955, Schwarcz travelled to New York City to see examples of contemporary enamel. The curator of the Museum of Contemporary Crafts included her work in the museum's inaugural exhibition, ''Craftsmanship in a Changing World'' (1956), establishing her reputation.
When Schwarcz moved to La Jolle later that year, she showed with the ''Allied Craftsmen of San Diego'' and received her first solo exhibition at the La Jolla Art Center (1957). That same year she returned to Sausalito. Beginning in 1962, Schwarcz used electroplating and electroforming to create more dramatic textures and varied shapes. Her innovative use of copper foil and mesh, which she started using in 1964, enables her to fold, cut, gather, and stitch to create unique, dynamic forms.
Designated a Living Treasure of California in 1985, Schwarcz also received the James Renwick Alliance Masters of the Medium Award (2009). Since the late 1950s her work has appeared in numerous exhibitions and has been the subject of solo shows at the San Francisco Craft and Folk Art Museum (1998) and the Mingel International Museum in San Diego (2009–10).
