Book Description
Now in its tenth year of publication, Ceramics in America is considered the journal of record for historical ceramic scholarship in the American context. The 2010 issue, which is intended to be a companion to the 2009 volume, will expand the discussion of the Moravian story by presenting a series of groundbreaking articles on other major centers of slipware production in the piedmont region of North Carolina. Setting a new standard for American ceramic studies, this transdisciplinary effort draws on archaeology, art history, religion, ceramics, technology, and many other areas of inquiry resulting in a substantively revised history of this much-admired North Carolina pottery tradition. Many examples of highly decorative slipware and intriguing figural bottles are illustrated here for the first time with the precise color photography of Gavin Ashworth. The 2009 and 2010 Ceramics in America journals are centered on the traveling exhibit, Art in Clay: Masterworks of North Carolina Earthenware, a ground-breaking exhibit that features masterfully decorated slipware, sculptural bottles, refined creamware and faience that are but part of the rich artistic legacy of North Carolina’s first earthenware potters. Art in Clay: Masterworks of North Carolina Earthenware Exhibition Schedule: The Milwaukee Art Museum: September 2, 2010 – January 17, 2011 Old Salem Museums & Gardens: March 2011 – August 2011 Colonial Williamsburg Foundation: September 26, 2011 – June 24, 2012

Book Description
The 2020 volume of Ceramics in America is a celebration of the depth and diversity of ceramics in the American context. Beautifully illustrated articles explore the use of clay from the most basic building bricks to refined earthenwares promoting the political and economic issues of the American Revolution. Of special interest is the origin of the ceramic manufacturing spark in America, looking at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia cited by historians and connoisseurs as the height of recognition of achievement for ceramic production in the United States. The archaeological discovery of rare "black delft" teapot fragments from Charleston's Drayton Hall is recounted in an exciting collector's narrative. Other articles will include a profile of North Carolina potter David Stuempfle who continues the old-age tradition of producing wood fired stoneware, a study of Thomas Jefferson's Chinese porcelain, and Pueblo pottery collected by a German Museum in the early twentieth century.

American Art Pottery
Author: Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen
Publisher: Metropolitan Museum of Art
ISBN: 1588395960
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana} At the height of the Arts and Crafts era in Europe and the United States, American ceramics were transformed from industrially produced ornamental works to handcrafted art pottery. Celebrated ceramists such as George E. Ohr, Hugh C. Robertson, and M. Louise McLaughlin, and prize-winning potteries, including Grueby and Rookwood, harnessed the potential of the medium to create an astonishing range of dynamic forms and experimental glazes. Spanning the period from the 1870s to the 1950s, this volume chronicles the history of American art pottery through more than three hundred works in the outstanding collection of Robert A. Ellison Jr. In a series of fascinating chapters, the authors place these works in the context of turn-of-the-century commerce, design, and social history. Driven to innovate and at times fiercely competitive, some ceramists strove to discover and patent new styles and aesthetics, while others pursued more utopian aims, establishing artist communities that promoted education and handwork as therapy. Written by a team of esteemed scholars and copiously illustrated with sumptuous images, this book imparts a full understanding of American art pottery while celebrating the legacy of a visionary collector.
