Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treatise on Ceramic Industries: A Complete Manual for Pottery, Tile and Brick Works N o apology is needed in the present instance for the publication of this work. The lack of technical treatises in the English language devoted to Ceramic Industry has long been a serious drawback to the progress alike of the student and the manufacturer. Since the days of Simeon Shaw there has been no serious attempt by any English writer to grapple with the complex problems of ceramics, or to produce any comprehensive description of the processes of clay manipulation. In view of this fact, and also that during the last few years an increasing interest has been manifested in systematic ceramics, it has been felt that the issue of such a work might prove opportune.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Clays and Clay Products This volume, like the others in this series, does not aim at exhausting the subject with which it deals. On the contrary, its chief aim is to give the commercial man sufficient insight into the nature of the various materials and products described for him to realise, in broad outline, the processes involved in their treatment and the extent to which they may be used for the purposes of his own business. Few people, except those who are actually engaged in the manufacture of clay products, have any idea of the wide ramifications of the industries connected therewith, yet, if clay products were suddenly removed and became irreplaceable, the loss among both primitive and civilised peoples would be incredibly great. Vast and important as is the Iron and Steel industry, it is in many ways only secondary to the trades connected with clays and clay-products;indeed, without the latter, the very production of iron would become practically impossible, architecture would, in many districts, be stifled, and the most evident signs of civilisation would be absent. To know something of the industries connected with so important a subject should form part of the education of every commercial and business man, and it is for such that this volume has primarily been written.

Book excerpt: "The catalogue ... is truly excellent and makes an important contribution to the study of Greek Art." --Bryn Mawr Classical Review "An overwhelming volume. The subject matter ... is described in great detail in nine chapters. Essential." --Choice This catalogue documents a major exhibition at the Getty Villa that was the first ever to focus on ancient Athenian terracotta vases made by techniques other than the well-known black- and red-figure styles. The exhibition comprised vases executed in bilingual, coral-red gloss, outline, Kerch-style, white ground, and Six's technique, as well as examples with added clay and gilding, and plastic vases and additions. The Colors of Clay opens with an introductory essay that integrates the diverse themes of the exhibition and sets them within the context of vase making in general; a second essay discusses conservation issues related to several of the techniques. A detailed discussion of the techniques featured in the exhibition precedes each section of the catalogue. More than a hundred vases from museums in the United States and Europe are described in depth.

Download or read book Korean Buncheong Ceramics from Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art written by Soyoung Lee and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2011 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bold, sophisticated, engaging, and startlingly modern, Buncheong ceramics emerged as a distinct Korean art form in the 15th and 16th centuries, only to be eclipsed on its native ground for more than 400 years by the overwhelming demand for porcelain. Elements from the Buncheong idiom were later revived in Japan, where its spare yet sensual aesthetic was much admired and where descendants of Korean potters lived and worked. This innovative study features 60 masterpieces from the renowned Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art in Seoul, as well as objects from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and presents current scholarship on Buncheong's history, manufacture, use, and overall significance. The book illustrates why this historical art form continues to resonate with Korean and Japanese ceramists working today and with contemporary viewers worldwide.

Olsen has been a ceramic artist for over sixty years and is very well known as a kiln builder. He often demonstrates kiln building at conferences and workshops around the world and is generally regarded as the authority on kilns. As a young ceramist, he had the good fortune to study under National Treasure ceramic artist Tomimoto Kenkichi and Kondo Yuzo in Japan for two and a half years. Since that time, he has traveled the world doing his ceramics and studying and building kilns of all shapes and sizes. He is well known for his Fastfire wood kiln designs. He has designed and patented the Olsen kiln kits, which have been sold worldwide. His first book, The Kiln Book, was published in 1973, and it has been continually revised and expanded ever since.
