CERF+’s core services are education expanded to better meet artists’ needs in response to a series of unprecedented natural programs, resources on readiness, response and recovery, advocacy, network building, disasters. The tragic events of this past year — the pandemic, another spate of catastrophic and emergency relief assistance. natural disasters, as well as the societal emergency of racial injustice — have thrust us into a new era in which we have had to rethink our work. Paramount in this moment has been BOARD OF DIRECTORS expanding our definition of “emergency” and how we respond to artists in crises. Tanya Aguiñiga Don Friedlich Reed McMillan, Past Chair While we were able to sustain our longstanding relief services, we also faced new realities, which required different actions. Drawing from the lessons we learned from administering Jono Anzalone, Vice Chair John Haworth* Perry Price, Treasurer aid programs during and after major emergencies in the previous two decades, we knew Malene Barnett Cinda Holt, Chair Paul Sacaridiz that our efforts would entail both a sprint and a marathon, requiring us to plan, pivot, Barry Bergey Ande Maricich* Jaime Suárez and partner. -

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). -

Acknowledgments from the Authors
Makers: A History of American Studio Craft, by Janet Koplos and Bruce Metcalf, published by University of North Carolina Press. Please note that this document provides a complete list of acknowledgments by the authors. The textbook itself contains a somewhat shortened list to accommodate design and space constraints. Acknowledgments from the Authors The Craft-Camarata Frederick Hürten Rhead established a pottery in Santa Barbara in 1914 that was formally named Rhead Pottery but was known as the Pottery of the Camarata (“friends” in Italian). It was probably connected with the Gift Shop of the Craft-Camarata located in Santa Barbara at that time. Like his pottery, this book is not an individual achievement. It required the contributions of friends of the field, some personally known to the authors, but many not, who contributed time, information and funds to the cause.

ADVERTISEMENT Semi-Annual Sale: Up to 60% Off ENTERTAINMENT & ARTS Ceramic art, once written off as mere craft, wins a brighter spotlight in the L.A. scene Visitors to the recent Scripps College Ceramic Annual consider “The Guardian,” a 2015 piece of stoneware, underglaze, glaze, resin and milk paint by Kyungmin Park. The longtime event is now joined by two new ceramics biennials, signaling a resurgence for the medium. (Irfan Khan / Los Angeles Times) By LEAH OLLMAN APRIL 25, 2018 | 2:44 PM f anything is a sign of the elevated status of ceramics, it's the central place a kiln now occupies on the campus of CalArts. I Once in disrepair because of limited interest, the kiln is in high demand. The studio area for ceramics, once a neglected corner, has become "something of a social hub," reports Thomas Lawson, dean of the School of Art. "Ceramics has flourished at CalArts in sync with its resurgence all over." Painting has been pronounced dead enough times to render the claim meaningless, if not ludicrous. But has clay, that most primordial matter, ever been significant enough as an art medium to merit killing off? In the last decade, however, the spotlight has burned klieg-bright and kiln-hot, to the point where clay's standing in the wider art world has never been higher, the L.A. scene never more alive. Two museums have just launched ceramic biennials, complementing the Scripps College Ceramic Annual, the longest continuously running show of its kind in the country, which recently finished in its 74th iteration. -
