MASTERS OF STUDIO POTTERY, PART II / Post-War to Present

This ambitious show, following on from ‘William Staite Murray and his Pupils’, tells much of the remaining story that has made British studio ceramics such an exceptional but still undersung part of our art history. Here you have many of its most prominent figures, from the pioneering pots of Shoji Hamada, Bernard Leach and Leach’s early students Michael Cardew and Katharine Pleydell-Bouverie, to the monumental forms of Julian Stair and Nicholas Rena today.  David Whiting, 2018
