| | | On the Table: At a time when making tableware by hand has to compete against imaginatively designed and often competitively priced factory ceramics, it is good to know that there continues to be a buoyant market for work that carries the individual style of the maker. In this four-page feature, Linda Bloomfield profiles four of these highly distinctive tableware potters. |
|
| Inner Ambiguities: Virgil Ortiz, a Native American potter (and the Pueblo equivalent of a rock star), was born in 1969 in Cochiti, New Mexico. In this four-page feature, Garth Clark appraises Ortiz's theatrical figures and illustrated pots, which call on the long tradition of Native American work to comment on the social and sexual mores of modern society. |
