About
Ceramic artist, painter and photographer, Marcie Jan Bronstein's work has been exhibited, published, and commissioned for more than three decades. Exhibitions of note: Invitational, 5 woman show in Milan, 1994; solo exhibition at Casa Italiana in New York, 1994; solo exhibition at Creative Photographic Arts in Maine, 1997; Parallax Women's Photography Invitational, 2012; New England Biennial, 2013; Flash Forward Photo Festival, 2014; Biennial at the Center for Maine Contemporary Art, 2018; solo exhibition, Zillman Art Museum, 2020; 3 person exhibition, Cove Street Arts, Portland, 2021; solo ceramic/watercolor, Maine Jewish Museum, 2023.
Bronstein's painterly, sculptural, ceramic work is in many ways a culmination of more than thirty years of art making. Her improvisational, instinctive approach comes from a background in both photography and painting: "I bring to my clay work my love of creating and capturing moments, and building images layer by layer. I'm looking for compositions with movement and balance, whimsy and raw beauty. My process-driven work is created in the spirit of play and discovery."
Her ceramic work can be found at Gallery B in Castine, Maine and the shop at the Center For Maine Contemporary Art in Rockland, Maine. Since 1996 she has lived and worked in a reconstructed barn in Belfast.
