About the Item
Gerry Williams is known using stoneware or porcelain to create vessels that are thrown and also for coil built sculptures. Gerry was born in India in 1926 and lived and worked in New Hampshire.
In the 1950s, Gerry Williams began working in the Black Hills area of Concord, New Hampshire with the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen. He cites David Campbell, the director, as well as other potters working at the League, such as Vivika Heino, John Butler, and Richard Moll, as influential in his study. During this time, he focused on wheel-thrown pottery techniques, but soon became known for his architectural forms in porcelain and stoneware. By the 1960s, Williams was well-known and respected, and was well-versed in innovative wet-fire techniques and photoresist processes for adding images to ceramic forms. He began working with large stoneware bowls and coil-building urns. He also mastered the Copper Red Glaze during this time. As his work began to shift towards stoneware and porcelain, he created a body of well-known political sculptures, known as “Political Constructions”, which included graffiti, relief lettering, photographic imagery, effigy figures, polyester resin, and acrylic paints.
In 1972, Williams and his wife co-founded The Studio Potter magazine, an international journal which became one of the most influential ceramic publications in the United States. Williams stayed on as an editor for 30 years.

Clyde Burt Ceramic Vessel or Vase
By Clyde Burt
Located in Dallas, TX
Born in Melrose, Ohio in 1922, Clyde Burt would go on to become a major voice in American studio ceramics. He studied at Fort Wayne Art School and later at the Cape Cod School of Art before landing at the Cranbrook Academy of Art to study under Maija Grotell. While Grotell is responsible for bringing the wheel to Cranbrook, Burt made it central to his practice and his thrown works express the same endless curiosity as his teacher. Upon returning to Ohio, Burt built a home studio on his family’s farmland near the Little Auglaize River and harvested rich clay from the surrounding area. He started every day at 5:30 in the morning and would work until he knew he “had enough”. Constantly experimenting with glazes, colors and surface decoration, Burt painstakingly recorded his successes and failures in a small notebook...
