Book excerpt: The remarkable collection of the UK's most prolific collector of postwar British studio pottery. In the latter half of the twentieth century, "professional Yorkshireman" W. A. Ismay (1910-2001) amassed over 3,600 pieces by more than 500 potters. Surrounded by his family of pots, he lived in a tiny terraced house in Wakefield, Yorkshire, and left his collection and its associated archive to the city of York upon his death. This eclectic group of works contains objects created by many of the most significant potters working in the United Kingdom, including Lucie Rie, Hans Coper, Bernard Leach, and Michael Cardew, as well as lesser-known makers. With new academic research into this little-studied collection and archive, Yorkshire Tea Ceremony explores Ismay's journey as a collector and offers fresh perspectives on a marginalized area of British Modernism. Tracing the collection's journey from private to public ownership illuminates issues surrounding the acquisition and reveals the transformative effect it has had on both curatorial practice and the ambition of regional public institutions. The W.A. Ismay Collection offers a well-documented example of the valuable contribution collectors can make to the British studio ceramics movement. Published to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of the collection's move from private to public ownership, this volume accompanies an exhibition at York Art Gallery's Centre of Ceramic Art (CoCA).

  • Author : Janet Koplos
  • Publisher : Univ of North Carolina Press
  • Release : 2010-07-31
  • ISBN : 0807895830
  • Pages : 544 pages

Download or read book Makers written by Janet Koplos and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-07-31 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the first comprehensive survey of modern craft in the United States. Makers follows the development of studio craft--objects in fiber, clay, glass, wood, and metal--from its roots in nineteenth-century reform movements to the rich diversity of expression at the end of the twentieth century. More than four hundred illustrations complement this chronological exploration of the American craft tradition. Keeping as their main focus the objects and the makers, Janet Koplos and Bruce Metcalf offer a detailed analysis of seminal works and discussions of education, institutional support, and the philosophical underpinnings of craft. In a vivid and accessible narrative, they highlight the value of physical skill, examine craft as a force for moral reform, and consider the role of craft as an aesthetic alternative. Exploring craft's relationship to fine arts and design, Koplos and Metcalf foster a critical understanding of the field and help explain craft's place in contemporary culture. Makers will be an indispensable volume for craftspeople, curators, collectors, critics, historians, students, and anyone who is interested in American craft.
