Summary
In this book, the work of sixty ceramic artists currently working with salt glaze is considered, using their own words as well as comments from art critics. The author has combined both their technique and their intention in her examination of these artists, discussing the influences on their work and their motivation for it. While all the artists admit that salt-glaze is a difficult technique, they agree that it holds substantial rewards, enough to keep them experimenting and developing their particular aesthetic to satisfy their own expressive needs. These artists come from all over the world, and are leading exponents of ceramic art in their own countries. It is their use of salt glaze, with its marvelous textured surface and possibilities for involvement and personal expression, that has brought these artists together in this book.
