Artisan and Design: Ceramics: Pottery: Sculptural Contemporary: item #635349

The wild man of the Japanese ceramic art world--and master potter--Koie Ryoji revived his 1989-90 Chernobyl series last year in a very limited edition--all different--and here is one work from that series. Koie pulverized production line Seto chawan to make the grainy-brittle mound that sits atop a fire brick base.

Artisan and Design: Ceramics: Pottery: Sculptural Pre 1990: item #587656
0132

Mary Barringer, widely exhibited, published, and collected, is well known for her "drawing" with slips, and some subtle incising, adding definition and incredible character to her pieces. This is a very special early piece and is a rare type of work for Barringer. It has had a single owner since it was created over 20 years ago. I'm not sure if the four feet are obvious in the photos, but they raise the piece up from its surface at least an inch. The piece is thick walled and heavy. Her effect i... Click for details
