JACQUELINE PONCELET
Jaqueline Poncelet studied ceramics at Wolverhapton College of Art (1965-1969), then the Royal College of Art (1969-1972), and was a major figure on the international ceramics scene in the 1970s and 80s. In the early 1990s she diversified to include painting, sculpture and public art commissions in her practice. Her highly intuitive, rhythmically patterned abstract paintings were shown in the exhibition ‘Ideal Home’ at Marsden Woo Gallery in November/December 2011. In 2000 Poncelet was one of the three curators of the British Art Show, and collaboration has become an increasingly important part of her work. She has lectured at a number of institutions, including the Royal College of Art and the University of Brighton, and has exhibited her work internationally in numerous solo and group shows. Poncelet’s work can be seen in many public collections, including that of the V&A, London, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Royal Scottish Museum, Edinburgh, and National Museum of Victoria, Australia.
