Gerry Williams (1926-2010;USA)
Exceptional Covered Jar with Applied Handles
ca 1969
Stoneware; ht. 7.5, dia. 7.75 in.
Artist signature incised on base.
Williams hails from India, where he was born in 1926 and grew up with his American family in the last years of the British Raj. “My parents were missionaries, running a missionary school in Bengal." Always remembered as the creator and Editor of Studio Potter Magazine, he had this to say: "Before I started The Studio Potter, there were two publications for ceramics, one for galleries and shops [Craft Horizons] and one for academics [Ceramics Monthly]. I felt the working craftsmen were getting shorted. I wanted to write for people working in the studio. It's been a wonderful life."
