This is an elegant analysis of the work of three of Denmark’s masters of contemporary ceramic art. From salt-glazing, to the development of the raku-fired vase, from organic, “soft,” curved lines to sharp, linear geometry, whether the emphasis is on texture or form or function, each artist offers a unique and exciting contribution to the field. Of special interest are Karen Bennicke’s “Split Pyramid”, Bente Hansen’s “Functional Teapot” and “Folded Vessel” and Peder Rasmussen’s brilliant, mulit-colored vases.

The art of making earthenware in Denmark was revived wih the emergence of the factory Aluminia in the mid 19th century. This book describes the evolution of both the factory and the delicate faience or earthenware. The book contains a short intro on the technique of firing porcelain and faience. The description of the faience is then divided into time periods, which makes it easily accesible for both the professional and the interested collector. It is richly illustrated with examples from the author’s own collection as well as from the collection of the factory itself. Includes makers and artists marks and a time line of the making of dinner services and their designers.
