The 15th National Pottery and Ceramics Festival, Art in Clay, took place at Hatfield House, Hertfordshire, UK between the 7th and the 9th of August 2009, and was a veritable feast of highly-skilled ceramic art and utilities from around the UK, Europe and the rest of the World.
Amongst the artists were Sally and Neil Macdonell (‘Box Faces’ pictured above) from Macdonell Ceramics, the highly reputed Richard Baxter from Leigh-on-Sea in Essex who specializes in stylish and functional earthenware, and the little-known Dane, Dorte Visby, with her minimalist, highly-textured approach to utility items.
Art in Clay is organized by Andy McInnes from Nottingham, UK. A veteran of the festival, McInnes’s next event is the 13th Art in Clay Farnham. Sure to be success, visitors and exhibitors can find out more about the event here.
