   Thrown: British Columbia's Apprentices of Bernard Leach and their Contemporaries

Thrown

British Columbia's Apprentices of Bernard Leach and their Contemporaries

Book Launch & Signing

Gallery of BC Ceramics

1359 Cartwright Street, Granville Island, Vancouver

Thursday, May 26, 2011

6:00 - 7:30 pm

Join us for the launch and signing of our new book, Thrown: British Columbia’s Apprentices of Bernard Leach and Their Contemporaries (published 2011).

For fans of contemporary art and arts & crafts, this book is the first of its kind in the history of art in Vancouver. It brings together essays by curators, first hand accounts by potters, archival documents, photographs and letters from the personal collections of seven highly respected potters who began to throw pots in the Vancouver west coast area during the 1960s.

The book is inspired by the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery’s ground breaking exhibition, Thrown: Influences and Intentions of West Coast Potters. Selected by Matthew Higgs as one of the “Top 10 shows of 2004” (Artforum International) for its unconventional and compelling approach to the studio pottery movement, the exhibition featured over 600 pots by John Reeve, Glenn Lewis, Michael Henry, and Ian Steele—the four Canadian apprentices of English potter Bernard Leach—and their like-minded contemporaries Tam Irving, Charmian Johnson, and Wayne Ngan. Fresh from their studies at the Vancouver College of Art, each of the four travelled to St. Ives in Cornwall, England and completed a two-year apprenticeship: Reeve, 1958-61; Lewis 1961-63, Henry 1963-65; and Steele 1963-65. When they returned to Vancouver, they found themselves in the swirl and experimentation of the 1960s Vancouver art scene.

Thrown includes contributions by Glenn Allison, Gwyn Hanssen Pigott, Michael Henry, Tam Irving, Charmian Johnson, Glenn Lewis, Lee Plested, Herbert Read, John Reeve, Naomi Sawada, Doris Shadbolt, Ian Steele, Nora Vaillant, Scott Watson, and Soetsu Yanagi.

Filled with colour and black white pictures, stories and letters, Thrown will enchant anyone who is interested in the Vancouver art scene of the 1960s and 70s.

This book is made possible with support by the Canada Council for the Arts, The Leon and Thea Koerner Foundation, 2010 Legacies Now (Arts Now), and the Doris Shadbolt Endowment Fund for the Arts. The book is published in cooperation with UBC Press.

Thrown: British Columbia’s Apprentices of Bernard Leach and their Contemporaries

The Innocence of Trees: Emily Carr and Agnes Martin.
By David Bellman.
Publication Date; 2010.
90 pages, hardcover.
$30.00 CND
ISBN 978-0-88865-642-1

“In this fiercely sustained account of the works and writings of Emily Carr and Agnes Martin, Bellman puts pressure on the limitations and possibilities of visual meaning and reception. He is deliberate and unhurried in his analysis of the two chosen protagonists, taking time to reflect at length on the ideas of other artists and authors pertinent to his subject. He unpacks the art and writings of Carr and Martin with the committed scholarship and deep admiration of somebody who has been thinking about the artists for a long period of time.” –Taken from the Foreword by John O’Brian to The Innocence of Trees by David Bellman.
