Throughout the 20th century, prominent artists from Pablo Picasso to A. R. Penck have experimented with ceramics. The works they produced have complemented and often expanded upon their styles and techniques in painting and sculpture, but they have rarely been studied by art historians. Here for the first time are ceramic works by 23 European artists, all from the extensive collection of artists pottery at the Museum Het Kruithuis in the Netherlands the only such collection in the world.Ceramics by Miro, Leger, Chagall, Braque, Dufy, and Cocteau are beautifully illustrated and discussed, as is the work of Karel Appel, Asger Jorn, and other members of the midcentury CoBrA movement, and that of contemporary artists such as Mimmo Paladino and Bruce McLean. Essays set the ceramics in context, and documentary photographs show the artists at work.

This book is a treasure trove for anyone interested in 20th-century ceramics. The artwork presented is stunning, and the text really complements the pieces. I've been diving into it every evening, and it’s a joy to see how these artists pushed boundaries.

Informative but Lacks Depth
I found this book to be interesting, but it didn't go as deep into the artists' backgrounds as I hoped. The illustrations are great, but I expected more detailed analysis. Still, it's a decent read if you're new to the topic.

Arrived Damaged, Disappointed
I was really looking forward to this book on ceramics, but it arrived with a dented cover and some pages were crinkled. The content seems promising, but I can't enjoy it when the presentation is off. I hope the replacement gets here in better shape.
