Andrew Casto

Andrew Casto’s ceramics are an investigation into dialogues concerning negative forces in our lives, and the degree to which the phenomenological ramifications of responsibilities and stress shape us physically, mentally, and emotionally. These works can be seen as a material study of erosion and geological processes translated into ceramic and mixed media objects. Casto lives in Iowa City. He was the 2011 MJD fellow at The Archie Bray Foundation for Ceramic Art in Helena, Montana, and has exhibited work internationally in Spain, Croatia, Italy, Austria, Slovenia, Belgium, China, Switzerland, France, and Japan. Casto was a recipient of a 2015 Emerging Artist award by the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA), and was a finalist for the 2017 Young Masters Maylis Grand Ceramics Prize with Cynthia Corbett Gallery, London. He is currently Assistant Professor of Art and Program Head of Ceramics at The University of Iowa.
