For her ninth Artsnap, Katie Ackrill chose 6 items from the Ceramics Collection at Swindon Museum and Art Gallery. This was really great because we haven't got any online access to the ceramics collection, whereas at least we can look at some of the art on the
ArtUK website.
Katie discussed the ceramic pieces, selected according to their colours as suggested by the title, she chose to discuss red, orange, yellow, blue and purple glazes. I took a few photos of the screen during her talk, so at least I would have some images of some of the pieces. It's well worth listening to the podcast, a link is found below.
Above, this is a yellow dish made by Peter Holdworth of the Ramsbury Pottery
A largely blue jug made in the distinctive style of Kate Malone.
Above a goblet made by Alain Caiger-Smith in 1969, and below a bowl with a red glaze inside made as you can see by Eddie Curtis.
And here's the link to the podcast for lots of information and more ceramic pieces:
