STUDIO POTTERY IN BRITAIN 1900-2005

摘要

The impossibility of a crisp definition of what the term 'studio pottery' means, where it sits within the culture of ceramics as a whole and its duration as a phenomenon, is dedicatedly explored in this detailed, extensive, thoroughly researched and well-written book. It is a history with a constant awareness of the sociology and philosophy of why pots still get made by hand and how potters survive. Extensive footnotes and good referencing make this a very useful scholarly work.
