Just heard a brilliant Lecture given by Garth Clark

Ai Weiwei dropping 5000 year old vase.

I was able to attend a lecture by Garth Clark at Penland School of Arts and Craft on the issues concerning contemporary ceramics.  He discussed the future of clay in the Fine Art Scene which I will pass along to students. It has been something in the forefront of my thinking lately when I address young students and their pursuit of ceramics.  The world is both larger and smaller because of the available technology.  We should be embracing the possibilities as well as preparing for a new approach to our thinking.
