Summary:From the 1880s to the 1950s, American artists drew upon the traditions and recent innovations of European and Asian ceramics to develop new designs, decorations, and techniques. The range of these American interpretations of international trends -- from the Arts and Crafts and Art Deco movements to the modernism of Matisse and the Wiener Werkstätte to abstracted, minimalist styles -- are examined in this book of more than 180 works from the collection of Martin Eidelberg. Featured makers include the Rookwood, Grueby, and Van Briggle Potteries, as well as artists such as Maija Grotell, George E. Ohr, Frederick Hurten Rhead, Louis C. Tiffany, Rockwell Kent, Adelaide Alsop Robineau, and Leza McVey.
