Guild Gallery is pleased to present Casey Zablocki: Modern Relics, the artist's first solo gallery exhibition in New York. Based in Missoula, Montana, Zablocki (American, b. 1982) creates functional stoneware sculptures fired in a wood-burning anagama kiln, producing forms and surfaces that are ancient in appearance and inspired by both the natural and the built worlds. Modern Relics surveys the artist's practice over the last decade, presenting 66 works that span monumental sculptures, furniture pieces, and intimately-sized vessels.

About
Roman and Williams
Guild Gallery is the natural extension of Roman and Williams Guild, on the corner of Howard and Mercer. When we opened the doors of the Guild nearly four years ago, this was the realization of a decades-long dream: to create a living organism of people, objects and furnishings—an eclectic world, a modern-day guild of the senses. We designed the Guild as a place to showcase the furniture that we make alongside the work of artisans we most admire for their skill and dedication to technique. We wanted to emphasize the everyday functionality of remarkably formed items and to emphasize the significance of living with very beautiful things while valuing the utility of expert crafted pieces. Guild Gallery is the next stage of evolution in this dialogue. Now, we intend to build on our commitment to help people appreciate the artistry in design as we celebrate individual makers. While the Guild celebrates a beauty that derives from function, the Gallery focuses purely on form. Whereas the Guild is all about an eclectic mix, the Gallery will spotlight the object, artist, and process.
