About

[edit]

Cynthia Bringle knew from an early age that she was interested in art, especially painting, so as a student she decided to attend the Memphis Academy of Arts with a focus on painting. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Memphis Academy of Art in 1962 and a Master of Fine Arts from New York State College of Ceramics, Alfred University.[5][6] Bringle was named a North Carolina Living Treasure in 2009.[7][8] She was honored as a Fellow of the American Craft Council in 2000.[7][5] Her work is in the collection of the Burlington Art Center, the High Museum of Art, and the Mint Museum of Craft and Design.[2] Her work, Tea Pitcher, was acquired by the Smithsonian American Art Museum as part of the Renwick Gallery's 50th Anniversary Campaign.[1]

Cynthia Bringle represented the United States at the First American International Ceramic Symposium, which consisted of twenty-five artists from thirteen different countries, and was hosted in the summer of 1973 at the Memphis Academy of Arts. In addition to an influential career as a teacher, Bringle has exhibited throughout the United States in numerous galleries, museums, and craft exhibitions.[9] In 1992 she was interviewed for the Archives of American Art for the Archives of American Art Oral History Program[10]
