About the Item
Contemporary American ceramic artists Richard Hirsch and Ken Baskin Ladle Presentation Sculpture was created in 2011. This piece is made of soda fired stoneware, saggar fired brick and steel. In the book "With Fire: Richard Hirsch, A Life Between Chance and Design" written by Scott Meyer, Ken Baskin said; "Working collaboratively is based upon a spirit of dedication and generosity, excellent communication, similar levels of ability and an alignment of passion and vision. Most importantly, the group must have mutual trust and respect. Without question, we all hold each other in the highest esteem. I have the utmost respect for everyone involved in The Crucible Project." This sculpture is signed by both artists and ships directly from the Crucible Show inventory located in Montevello, Al.

In 1975, Hirsch co-authored a book entitled Raku, published by Watson-Guptill. This was the first comprehensive text to address the new innovations developing in the west that were transforming traditional Japanese Raku. Also, in the same year, Hirsch became a founding faculty member of The Program in Artistry at Boston University. Currently, Hirsch is a Professor Emeritus at The School for American Crafts which is a part of Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY. His university teaching career now spans well over four decades.

Significant shows include; The Evolution of American Art in Craft Media Since 1945; Echoes: Historical References in Contemporary Ceramics; American Ceramics Now; Raku: Origins, Impact and Contemporary Expression; and Convergences: The Presence of the Past in Contemporary American Ceramics.
Frequently his work appears in book and magazine publications, such as; Overseas Contemporary Ceramic Art Classics by Baiming, China; Raku Investigations into Fire by David Jones, England; The History of American Ceramics from 1607 to the Present by Elaine Levin, New York; World Contemporary Ceramics by Baiming, China; and Firing, Philosophies within Contemporary Ceramic Practice by David Jones, England.

Fulbright Research Scholar Award in 2002, Hirsch has also received several Individual Artists Grants. Most recently he was honored by The Rochester Institute of Technology, with the Board of Trustees' Outstanding Scholarship Award.
