A superb crisp and clean copy, Illustrated laminated boards. Issued without dustjacket. pp 80. Among the many Japanese ceramic artists working today, Ryoji Koie is the one at the most critical interface with contemporary art. Whether teabowl, vase, open-mouthed cylinder, tray, or bottle, Koie's chos en shapes are instantly identifiable as pottery yet they become departure-p oints for an extraordinary range of surface treatments from the indulgent t o the austere. This volume illustrates and considers a body of work created by Koie during a residency in Seattle at the University of Washington. He located natural deposits of clay in a variety of local sites. Vases, vessel s, trays, footed plates, and "stretched" plates were created in profusion, each subject to the artist's freewheeling imagination in altering, throwing , ripping and tearing, and applying glaze and liquid clay or "slip.".
