Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. An in-depth portrait of the life and work of Shoji Hamada, one of the key figures behind the development of studio pottery in the 20th century, and the legacy he left.Shoji Hamada was one of the seminal figures in 20th century ceramics. Along with the British potter Bernard Leach, he was instrumental in the development of the international Studio Pottery movement in the early 1900s. Their dramatic influences are still felt today, particularly in the United States and Great Britain. Hamada, also a major figure in Japans folk art revival, was designated a Living National Treasure by the Japanese government in 1955 and awarded the Order of Culture in 1968.Shoji Hamada is an ebullient and fascinating portrait of a great potter, tracing his place in the ceramic tradition and revealing a keen perception of his energetic lifestyle, dazzling work cycle, and intriguing specifics about the firing of his kilns. The text and over 200 new colour photographs from Petersons stay at Hamadas compound in 1970 present a wealth of detail about techniques and processes. Equally important are the authors insights depicting Hamadas bequest to us: one whose life was concentrated toward the perpetuation and achievement of fundamental, unchanging and universal values and goals.In this completely re-designed and updated version of her classic book, Susan Peterson brings together the East-West connection personified by Hamada and Leach. In a completely new concluding chapter, she assesses Hamadas ongoing legacy to the world of studio pottery. This is an authoritative account of one of the towering figures in the ceramics world by one of the first people to welcome him to America in the early 1950s. The book is a must for anyone interested in the evolvement of hand pottery and the dynamics of ceramics in general. Shoji Hamada was one of the key figures behind the development of studio pottery in the 20th century. Awarded the Order of Culture by his native Japan, his influence was also felt in both England and the USA. This book profiles the work of the artist and the legacy he left.
