Doug Fitch
Earthenware in the Glorious
English Country Tradition
19th November - 27th November
A first major solo exhibition by Doug Fitch. Doug's earthenware
is a wonderful evocation of the English Country Pottery tradition
that Bernard Leach writes of. By 1920 most of the Country Potteries
had disappeared and it was the work of potter's like Michael Cardew
that kept the flame burning. Doug is a continuation of Michael Cardew
effots, developing his own distinctive voice and now producing mature
contemporary earthenware firmly rooted in our Glorious English Tradition.
Peter
Swanson (Solo Exhibition)
8th October - 16th October
We are thrilled to be back at Thoresby Gallery after a break of
18 months, and who better to start our new exhibition program than
Peter Swanson. Peter's work continues to excite with new forms and
further development of more refined glazes derived from wood ashes.
This exhibition sees a new batch of used thatch ash over locally
sourced red ochre, wonderful temoku and use of pours and drips.
