On our website you can find further activities and resources to explore. The first exhibition in this gallery, ’Reactions’ focuses on Dundee’s nationally important collection of studio ceramics. This pack explores some of the processes that have created the stunning pieces on display and shares some of the inspirations behind the creation of individual ceramics. Contents Reactions: Studio Ceramics from our Collection Introduction and Origins 01 Studio Pottery - Influences 02 The Process 03 Glossary 05 List of Objects - by theme What is Studio Pottery? 10 Influences 11 Ideas and Stories 14 What on Earth is Clay? 16 Getting your Hands Dirty 19 The Icing on the Cake - Glaze and Decoration 21 Fire 24 Artist Focus Stephen Bird 27 Reactions: Studio Ceramics from our collection Introduction- background and beginnings 'Studio Ceramics' or 'Studio Pottery' - can be best described as the making of clay forms by hand in a small studio rather than in a factory. Where the movement in the early days is referred to as 'Studio Pottery' due to its focus on functional vessels and 'pots', the name of 'Studio Ceramics' now refers broadly to include work by artists and designers that may be more conceptual or sculptural rather than functional. As an artistic movement Studio Ceramics has a peculiar history. It is a history that includes changes in artistic and public taste, developments in art historical terms and small and very individual stories of artists and potters.

  • 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.
