Studio Ceramics in Canada

"Cultural historian Gail Crawford presents, for the first time, the full story of the ceramist's art in Canada. Studio Ceramics in Canada examines the growth of ceramics as a studio art, from its tentative beginnings after the First World War to the dynamism and diversity of today. It celebrates artists, craftspeople, instructors, retailers, curators, and collectors united in their passion for objects transformed by fire." "In words and images, Gail Crawford links clay practice in Canada with critical developments in England and the United States. To preserve Canada's unique heritage, she bases her work, not only on extensive research, but also on interviews with experienced artists and experts - the people who made the history. Studio Ceramics in Canada documents the unique stories of every province and region, including the far north, with archival photos and more than 270 colour photographs of the most compelling and expressive pieces of ceramic art."--BOOK JACKET.
