Nicole Kornberg Jacobovici received her Bachelor of Arts (BA) from McGill University, Montreal and her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NASCAD), Halifax, Nova Scotia, where she majored in ceramics. Nicole then attended the University of Colorado, Boulder, Dept. of Ceramics. There she studied with Scott Chamberlin. Nicole’s style has been particularly inspired by her studies of Bronze Age Egyptian, Mycenaean, Etruscan and Israelite pottery. Her modern influences are Hans Coper, Lucie Rie and Shoji Hamada. Nicole is best known for her vase, bowl and platter forms. Noted art curator/scholar, Dr. Cinzia Chiari has described Nicole’s work as “exhibiting the power of the ancients in contemporary forms.” Nicole has exhibited in many venues including Boulder, Toronto, Tel Aviv and, most recently, as part of the EXVOTO: Per Arte Ricevuta in Milan and Florence, curated by Angelo Crespi. The EXVOTO ceramic vessel was featured in Chantecler jewelry’s Milan Exhibit.
