Summary:
"This book tells the story of the development of the American studio ceramics movement during the period from 1940 to 1979. This history examines the primary people and organizations related to the movement as it transformed itself from a little-known endeavor to one that engaged a large community of practitioners and supporters and gained recognition from validating institutions and other art communities. The structure of the book is chronological, with themes introduced in the relevant chapters and then traced as appropriate across later chapters and decades"-- Provided by publisher.
