LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Sir, EXHIBITION CALENDAR May I make a plea to aspiring author/ potters. I frequently come across glaze formulas and technical articles in the Potter and other publications, which do not convey sufficient accuracy to be PRESS of any use. For example, on page 25 of the Potter Canterbury Society of Arts, 1984/1 are listed 4 leadless earthenware Art Gallery, Christchurch Sir, glaze recipes.

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.

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.

N the first edition of this work we thought it necessary to narrate at length how our curiosity and interest were, on our arrival in England, aroused by the discovery of two quaint pieces of Salt-glaze, seen one day on the window-sill of an old cottage in Staffordshire. How we devoted our leisure to the research of speci- mens of the various kinds of pottery made in the district, feeling, at every fresh find, our admiration increase for a ware which, to our astonishment, had so far escaped the notice of the Continental collectors, and how it was that we were drawn into sketching and etching some curious pieces of our collection for our own pleasure, and the gratification of some friends at a distance ; a labour which ultimately led to the publication of the present work.

They and their fathers before them have grown up with, lived with, made and developed the English pottery trade. The pot-bank and the shard ruck are, to them, as familiar, and as full of old associations, as the cowshed to the countryman or the nets along the links to the fishing popula- tion. To them any history of the development of their industry will be welcome. But potting is such a specialized industry, so confined to and associated with North Stafford- shire, that it is possible to study very clearly in the case of this industry the cause of its localization, and its gradual change from a home to a factory business.
