Artistic ceramics is not a new idea. After all, the finest decorated pottery in ancienct Greece was both functional and artistic. The potteries in Renaissance Italy produced brilliant painterly vessels that were appreciated as art. Likewise, it is hard to dismiss the brilliant enamel painting on European porcelains in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries as only "decoration." However, something did happen in the third quarter of the nineteenth century. Part of it was the rise of an anti-industrial reaction to "soulless" factory production; part of it was a growing awareness in the West of revered ceramic traditions from Asia.
All of this came together, in the United States at least, at the national Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia in 1876. That moment was a cultural watershed for America, a moment that unleashed something of an aesthetic awakening. It was in the aftermath of the Centennial that Americans began to see the potential for transforming ceramics from merely ornaments into art objects. In shape, in glaze, in surface treatment, pots could be more than just pots.
THANKYOU WHAT A PLEASURE TO SEE THRESE LOVELY PIECES
I want to watch a few more hours of this.
I enjoyed the comments by the pottery experts and the diversity of pieces. Very well done. Thank you.
Really beautiful. Thanks.
I can't wait to see the exhibition, especially the Rookwood.
what a great video!!!
i work at the rookwood pottery company
That must be a awesome job to have. Does Rookwood still make pottery? I don't know much about Rookwood, but I am a pottery lover. In a auction 2 weeks weeks ago a vase made by Rookwood was there hiding umucked the junk. I knew it was special right away and hoping no one else noticed since the auction didn't advertise it as anything other than a vase with nice color. Well I wasn't the only one with a eye on special pottery so I was out bid. Am just beginning to collect again since the price drops in 2007. Mostly Roseville Pottery.
BORING
