  • 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).

(127.6 x 152.4 cm) Smithsonian American Art Museum Gift of the artist 1991.171 Not currently on view Collections Webpage and High Resolution Image Roger Yutaka Shimomura painted Diary, December 12, 1941, in response to his family’s internment/incarceration in Minidoka Relocation Center in Idaho during World War II. Researcher Liz interviewed Shimomura and learned about the experience of Japanese- Americans incarcerated in camps during World War II. • December 7, 1941 was the day that the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. What happened on December 12th? December 12th refers to the dating of an entry in the personal diary of Roger Shimomura’s grandmother, Toku Shimomura (1888-1968). Toku Machida Shimomura was born and raised in Japan and traveled to Seattle, Washington in 1912 as a “picture bride” in an arranged marriage to Yoshitomi Shimomura. Toku was a professional midwife and delivered her grandson, Roger, in 1939. Roger Shimomura told me that his grandmother kept fifty-six diaries but not all survive. Toku burned many of her diaries due to her fear that federal officials might find them. Because Shimomura does not read Japanese, he hired a graduate student to translate the diaries into English. His paintings in his Diary and American Diary series are based upon his grandmother’s reminiscences, including Toku’s entry from December 12, 1941: I spent all day at home. Starting from today we were permitted to withdraw $100 from the bank.

  • Artist Roger Shimomura Sheds Light on Stereotypes
    MEDIA RELEASE May 28, 2015 Media Contact: Julianna Verboort, 253-272-4258 x3011 or [email protected] Pop Art that Packs A Punch: Artist Roger Shimomura Sheds Light on Stereotypes Tacoma, WA – Tacoma Art Museum presents the work of Seattle native Roger Shimomura in An American Knockoff, featuring 53 paintings and prints on view June 20 − September 13, 2015. Shimomura’s style combines his childhood love of comic books and interest in American pop art with the traditions of Japanese woodblock prints, resulting in a contemporary American presentation that references his Japanese ancestry. His vibrant art conveys messages about politics, society, racism, and stereotypes, sparking conversation about Asian American identities. An American Knockoff reflects Shimomura’s experience of commonly being presumed a foreigner in his own country and culture. “Knockoff” refers to something cheaply made to resemble a more valuable original; with a knife-sharp wit, Shimomura’s work explores the perception of his identity as “less than” American. In the exhibition catalogue he explains, “Far too many American-born citizens of Asian descent continue to be thought of as only American knockoffs. This latest series of paintings is an attempt to ameliorate the outrage of these misconceptions by depicting myself battling those stereotypes, or in tongue-in-cheek fashion, becoming those very same stereotypes.” (Roger Shimomura, An American Knockoff, Copyright © 2014 Museum of Art/Washington State University.) He assumes the identities of real and imagined iconic American heroes − Superman, George Washington, Mickey Mouse − raising questions about what and who we consider to be American. He inserts himself as an impostor within or aggressor against stereotypes (for example, American vs.

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.
