Documenting an extraordinary range and variety of ceramics spanning more than 30,000 years, this updated edition of The Pot Book surveys mankind’s fascinating exploration of this inexhaustible vessel.
The history of ceramic art is ingrained in the history of mankind. Clay is one of the very first materials ‘invented’ by man. An essential part of our lives, it has been moulded, thrown, glazed, decorated and fired for over 30,000 years in order to preserve and transport food and water. And it was on the surface of these early jugs, vases, dishes, plates, beakers and amphorae that man placed some of his first decorative markings. In more recent times, clay has been used not just by artisans and potters, but also by artists, designers and architects. Hardcover, 320 pages.
