This book investigates how British contemporary artists who work
with clay have managed, in the space of a single generation, to
take ceramics from niche-interest craft to the pristine territories
of the contemporary art gallery. This development has been
accompanied (and perhaps propelled) by the kind of critical
discussion usually reserved for the 'higher' discipline of
sculpture. Ceramics is now encountering and colliding with
sculpture, both formally and intellectually. Laura Gray examines
what this means for the old hierarchies between art and craft, the
identity of the potter, and the character of a discipline tied to a
specific material but wanting to participate in critical
discussions that extend far beyond clay.
