Description

We were very fortunate to acquire a collection of ceramic works by celebrated UK artist David Garland, who is often referred to as a "painter in clay."  This work is extremely multi-purpose.  Yes, you can use it as a serving bowl, but also as a decorative bowl and a catch-all bowl to place in the entry hall to hold things like mail and masks.  Most important, it has his signature abstract painting covering just about every inch of the top, inside and sides, even the feet!

About the Artist

Born in England in 1941, David Garland grew up in New Zealand. In 1961 he returned and trained at the London College of Printing. Later, he taught there, and at the Bath Academy of Art, Corsham, as a senior lecturer. During that period he was also a working artist and had his first one-man exhibition of paintings at the Drian Galleries in 1963. He began exploring ceramics as a medium after he took lessons from the potter Jonathan Atkinson in 1972 and established a small pottery in Oxford. In 1975 he moved with his family to the Gloucestershire Cotswolds and built studios that could accommodate both his painting and pottery output.  For the most part, his ceramics tend to marry the two art forms. He is very much active today creating what he refers to as slipware with either "painting", "drawing", "sgraffito" or other painterly decoration over a typically white ground.

He has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows in the UK, the US, Australia, India and Japan and his works are in the collections of institutions such as the Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Crafts Council, and the Paisley Museum and Art Gallery.
