The ‘Stimulus Package” is new and it seems to be working. I tried to speak with President Barack Obama, but couldn’t reach him. Instead, I did talk with Michelle Obama who was very gracious in every way. She did say that FCC’s latest newsletter was a great “Stimulus Package”, and that it might persuade its members to get off their *#+<^:? feet, see what’s new in the ceramic community and then buy a work of art! To say the least, I agreed with her. So…, hopefully the latest articles will move you. Susan Tunick, a great ceramic artist from NYC talks about a wonderful “preservation” society she started. Joy Brown, another great ceramic sculptor from Connecticut tells us about a ceramic workshop that she helped found. Jeff Shapiro, from up-state NY, who leads tours and workshops in Japan, tells us about “the Elusive Tea Bowl.” Mark Erroll, a ceramic teacher and emerging artist in Florida, will engage your mind about the male figure in ceramics. And last but not least, Cindy Strauss, of the Houston Museum of Fine Arts gives a splendid read on the donation of the Garth Clark & Mark Del Vecchio ceramic collection to the museum. And if the above isn’t enough, one of the great “Stimulus Packages” is a review in the NY Times by Roberta Smith on the show, “Dirt on Delight - Impulses That Form Clay,” at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia. To offer a few quotes: “Dirt on Delight argues for ceramics as a more than worthy subject”; “It reminds us that the art form…has one of the richest histories of any medium on the planet”; “It can’t be said enough that the art-craft divide is a bogus concept…”; “It also suggests that while ceramics is just another art medium, there is no art medium quite like ceramics”. Let me know if you would like a copy.

Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Kay Sekimachi dated April 16, 1995.

  • David Shaner – (1934 – 2002) Artist's Statement – David
    DAVID SHANER – (1934 – 2002) David Shaner is an icon in the field of American ceramic art. He was instrumental in establishing the Archie Bray Foundation as a major player in ceramics, and he continued to support the Bray after retiring as its Resident Director. His exquisitely formed vessels with their understated glazes are a reflection of the man himself, a man in harmony with his environment and at peace in himself. Shaner was also noted as a teacher, a collector, and a generous contributor to the world of ceramic art and the field of environmental protection; his gardens which he called his “spiritual work” included notable specialized collections. While David Shaner’s life was cut short by ALS, his legacy continues through the David and Ann Shaner Resident Studio Complex which opened in 2005 at the Archie Bray foundation. ARTIST’S STATEMENT – DAVID SHANER “Basically, I am doing what I want to do and have never done anything else. By competing only with myself, I am not in pursuit of the crowd. Following one’s work is a joy and a challenge. One learns to do what is in one’s soul – thus revealing the connections between life and art. Although over the years I have become deeply involved with my tools and materials, simplicity of form and process have been my greatest achievements. And while the pots have been saturated with optimism, this has not always been easy to achieve. It is with a certain resilience I carry the belief that as life is enriched, the work can answer a resounding YES!”1 1.
