  • 9. Ceramic Arts
    Profile No.: 38 NIC Code: 23933 CEREMIC ARTS 1. INTRODUCTION: Ceramic art is art made from ceramic materials, including clay. It may take forms including art ware, tile, figurines, sculpture, and tableware. Ceramic art is one of the arts, particularly the visual arts. Of these, it is one of the plastic arts. While some ceramics are considered fine art, some are considered to be decorative, industrial or applied art objects. Ceramics may also be considered artifacts in archaeology. Ceramic art can be made by one person or by a group of people. In a pottery or ceramic factory, a group of people design, manufacture and decorate the art ware. Products from a pottery are sometimes referred to as "art pottery".[1] In a one-person pottery studio, ceramists or potters produce studio pottery. Most traditional ceramic products were made from clay (or clay mixed with other materials), shaped and subjected to heat, and tableware and decorative ceramics are generally still made this way. In modern ceramic engineering usage, ceramics is the art and science of making objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials by the action of heat. It excludes glass and mosaic made from glass tesserae. There is a long history of ceramic art in almost all developed cultures, and often ceramic objects are all the artistic evidence left from vanished cultures. Elements of ceramic art, upon which different degrees of emphasis have been placed at different times, are the shape of the object, its decoration by painting, carving and other methods, and the glazing found on most ceramics. 2.

  • Earthenware Clays
    Arbuckle Earthenware Earthenware Clays Earthenware usually means a porous clay body maturing between cone 06 – cone 01 (1873°F ‐ 2152°F). Absorption varies generally between 5% ‐20%. Earthenware clay is usually not fired to vitrification (a hard, dense, glassy, non‐absorbent state ‐ cf. porcelain). This means pieces with crazed glaze may seep liquids. Terra sigillata applied to the foot helps decrease absorption and reduce delayed crazing. Low fire fluxes melt over a shorter range than high fire materials, and firing an earthenware body to near vitrification usually results in a dense, brittle body with poor thermal shock resistance and increased warping and dunting potential. Although it is possible to fire terra cotta in a gas kiln in oxidation, this is often difficult to control. Reduced areas may be less absorbent than the rest of the body and cause problems in glazing. Most lowfire ware is fired in electric kilns. Gail Kendall, Tureen, handbuilt Raku firing and bodies are special cases. A less dense body has better thermal shock resistance and will insulate better. Earthenware generally shrinks less than stoneware and porcelain, and as a result is often used for sculpture. See Etruscan full‐size figure sculpture and sarcophagi in terra cotta. At low temperatures, glaze may look superficial & generally lacks the depth and richness of high fire glazes. The trade‐offs are: • a brighter palette and an extended range of color. Many commercial stains burn out before cone 10 or are fugitive in reduction. • accessible technology. Small electric test kilns may be able to plug into ordinary 115 volt outlets, bigger kilns usually require 208 or 220 volt service (the type required by many air conditioners and electric dryers).

    Southern Folk Pottery at Pebble Hill Southern Stoneware at Pebble Hill Most of the impressive collection of Southern pot- tery owned by Pebble Hill, the home of Auburn Uni- versity’s Caroline Marshall Draughon Center for the Arts and Humanities, was assembled by noted art pa- tron Ann Draughon Cousins, the daughter of former Auburn University president Ralph B.

Though regarded as art objects today, these An ovoid, mid-nineteenth century beautiful pottery forms represent essential household alkaline-glazed jug attributed to an items required by American lifeways in the nineteenth upstate South Carolina potter. century. Through their form, function, and glazes these pieces also reflect differing American pottery traditions and eras which speak to migration and technological change affecting the people who settled the South. The makers were artisans who worked in a family-based folk tradition in communities where clay suitable for pottery production could be found. Pottery and the Southern Frontier The pottery made and used in the historic South was different than that of the American Indian and West African traditions. The relatively low-fired, unglazed earthenware forms made by Africans and the first Americans, though well-constructed, were relatively fragile. Consequently, the sturdy glazed earth- enware and stoneware provided by European ceramic technology came to dominate the pottery market during the Colonial and early Republic periods of American history. These durable vessels were impervious to liquids and thus more suitable for travel and the storage, preparation, and service of food. The presence of a glaze is the signature feature of most European ceramics.
