California Clay Movement information


Peter Voulkos, Noodle. stoneware sculpture, 1996, Metropolitan Museum of Art

The California Clay Movement (or American Clay Revolution) was a school of ceramic art that emerged in California in the 1950s.[1] The movement was part of the larger transition in crafts from "designer-craftsman" to "artist-craftsman". The editor of Craft Horizons, New York-based Rose Slivka, became an enthusiastic advocate of the movement.[2]
