Just back from visiting friends in Sudbury, Suffolk. While there, I saw a wonderful pottery exhibit at the Imagine Gallery — here is a link to the show. They called it Legacy: An Exhibition of Potters Inspired by Isaac Button, Country Potter. Splendid pots, displayed beautifully, and the gallery owners were friendly and knowledgeable. It was everything one could hope for in a gallery show! Here are snaps of a few of my favorite pots.
A large bread crock by Mark Titchiner. Note that it is displayed on sand. I loved the variety of surfaces and imaginative pedestal arrangements in this show. As a former gallery owner, I admire creative displays.
A set of pitchers by Stephen Parry
I loved this pitcher by Clive Bowen!
And finally a display of work by someone whose name I have forgotten (my apologies!) – perhaps Andrew Crouch? I lost my notes that went along with my photos, so I think/hope I have attributed the above pots correctly. I include this photo in part because of the pedestal display. They had several of these window openings with lighting — a great way to expand and enhance a pedestal!
I came home with a copy of the full Isaac Button video. If anyone wants to borrow it, get in touch…
