Namhi Kim Wagner (1923-2023) was a passionate ceramic artist who enhanced the Boston arts scene with her creative energy and bold, modern expressions inspired by the rich history of Korean ceramics. Born in Korea, raised in Japan, and returning to Korea before emigrating to the United States, she taught Korean Language at Harvard University from 1964-1995, becoming the first director of its Korean Language Program. The “Namhi Kim Wagner Korean Language Prize” was established in 2022 to honor her legacy.
Often teaching all day and staying up all night to perfect her craft, she connected to her origins by mastering Korean traditional ceramic techniques, most notably the slip decoration and sgraffiti of 15-16th century Buncheong ware.
“In the process of experimentation, practice, and studying Korean ceramics history, I was so happy to find myself - where I came from and where I was heading. Each stamp and each incision I make on my pots feels like a step closer to these roots and my destiny.” — Namhi Kim Wagner
Nancy Selvage, artist and former director of the Ceramics Program – Office for the Arts at Harvard, writes: “Among her numerous bodies of work are delicate plates with vibrant stamped patterns, swelling jars encircled with floral carving, and large bowls overflowing with big happy fish and lotuses. Dynamic tension and harmonic unity characterize the relationships between her refined forms and masterful surface decorations. In the mid 70's, most American ceramists in the Boston area knew something about Chinese and Japanese ceramics, but they knew very little about Korean ceramics. Namhi Kim Wagner changed that. For the next forty years she was very active and effective as a spokeswoman and as an entertaining teacher of Korean ceramic techniques. She gave many presentations to a variety of different audiences in major museums and studios in the Boston area. As an artist-in-residence at the Harvard Ceramics Program, she inspired the large group of students and staff with her expertise, dedication, and passion.”
Namhi Kim Wagner has exhibited internationally and her work is in the collections of the Harvard Art Museums and the Museum of Fine Arts Boston. This memorial exhibition presents a wide range of ceramics from her prolific career.
