Frederick Hurten Rhead, whose work spanned four decades in this country, is one of the more dynamic and colorful figures of the art pottery era. His activities encompassed every aspect of artware development: the studio operation at Santa Barbara; the direction of small groups of amateur decorators at Arequipa, Weller, and Roseville; instructor in pottery in the grandly-devised University City scheme; and director of research and art director, respectively, at two of the largest United States ceramics factories, American Encaustic Tiling and Homer Laughlin China. -- from the Foreword by Paul Evans. Illustrated with 118 monochrome figures and 12 color plates.

Softcover. Zustand: VG, one crese in lower spine. Black and beige and illus. wraps, 136 pp., BW & color illus. Issued in conjunction with an exhibition featuring the work of English-born ceramicist Frederick Hurten Rhead (1880-1942). "There are few artists whose careers were so varied, and so completely involved in all aspects of American ceramic art as Frederick Hurten Rhead. Like those of his contemporaries whose work reflects lifelong creative growth and development, such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Rhead's stylistic development spans from the pioneering, anti-industrial modernism of the Arts and Crafts movement to the sleek machine-aesthetic of mid-century. His influence, expressed through his profuse writings and prolific design accomplishments, was felt not only by his colleagues, but by the general public." (preface) Chapters address the chronology: Vance/Avon Faience, 1902-1903 ; S. A. Weller, 1904 ; Roseville, 1904-1908 ; Jervis Pottery, 1908-1909 ; University City, 1909-1911 ; Arequipa, 1911-1913 ; Steiger Pottery, 1913 ; Rhead Pottery, 1914-1917 ; American Encaustic Tiling Company, 1917-1927 ; and Homer Laughlin China Company, 1927-1942. Includes color plates and a bibliography of publications written by Rhead. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 151543
