Tall Porcelain Sculptural Vessel in White and Blue by Thomas Naethe

About the Item

Tall elegant ornamental art vase or vessel by Thomas Naethe is turned on the wheel and assembled in porcelain. Although the work refers to vessel forms it is essentially sculptural in nature. Formal precision, harmony and clarity are words that are used to describe key qualities in the work. Inspiration is drawn from the tranquil rural environment of the Dauner Eifel region in which he lives. He uses a stoneware body for his work, which is wheel thrown and is assembled from three thrown forms. He uses slip, coloring salts and oxides for decoration where a monochromatic range of color tends to dominate. The inside is clear glazed Born in Berlin, Germany, he studied with Gisela Schliessler at Krösselbach from 1973-1976 and then trained at the Technical School for Ceramic Design. He teaches at the University of Cologne. Preowned and purchased from a gallery in Berlin.

Promenade IV, a Unique Ceramic Sculptural Tall Vase in Porcelain by Jo Taylor
By Jo Taylor
Located in London, GB
'Promenade IV’ is a unique porcelain sculpture by the British artist, Jo Taylor. Dramatic in scale Promenade IV is a sheer triumph over the material employed. Known for being one of the most difficult ceramic bodies to work with, scale is always a challenge with porcelain and with this artwork, Taylor excels. Knowing her clay is everything, created in sections allows architectural scale whilst adding grog (pre-fired grains of clay) gives stability and strength. Adorned with her trademark flourishes adds glamourous movement throughout the piece. Taylor’s inspiration comes from highly decorative architectural features such as ornate plaster ceilings, wrought iron and carved stone. Living near the Georgian city of Bath (UK) provides a rich visual resource, although it can be said that she will seek out such details wherever she goes. Regular visits to our larger cities such as Liverpool (UK) and London (UK) offer ornament that can be experienced on a grander scale with their historic buildings such as the Sefton Park Palm House and the V&A holding many further examples. Further afield the architecture of Gaudi in Barcelona, the palaces of Potsdam and the Villa D'Este in Tivoli have all provided inspiration. In her own words: ‘I enjoy the grand gesture present in large scale relief, the drama of deep shadow, the dialogue between space, structure & ornament. The changing light conditions of bright sunlight, a dull day, dusk or artificial light can affect the contrast and way the structure is perceived’ Taylor’s current practice has been evolving since graduation from her MA at Bath Spa...
