Breaking the Mold
New Approaches to Ceramics

R. Barnard, N. Daintry, & C. Twomey

 

Ceramics today encompasses a massive spectrum of activities. From object-making, sculpture, and large-scale installations to traditional forms of the vessel, makers and artists today are pushing the boundaries of the form, both technically and conceptually. This book profiles over 60 contemporary ceramic artists and makers.

The work they are doing is taking the medium forward into exciting new territory, blurring the boundaries between craft, design and fine art. Essays by artist academics approach the medium from different perspectives, looking at emotions, conversations, and debates that are going on in ceramics today, and providing a unique insight into this most innovative of media.
