Description

Raku: A Comprehensive Guide to the Art and Technique of Raku Pottery. For those interested in exploring the unique world of raku pottery, this book provides an in-depth guide to the techniques, materials, and processes involved. With its focus on clay types, glazes, kilns, firing methods, and reduction processes, it offers a thorough understanding of this unforgiving yet rewarding medium. From its association with amateur pottery classes to its use by professional potters as a serious expression of their work, raku has become increasingly popular over the past thirty years. This edition features new text, stunning full-colour images, and an expanded gallery of artists showcasing innovative techniques and styles. The book delves into the work, inspiration, and influences of sixty-five renowned raku potters, including Toshio Ohi, Maika Korfmacher, Yasuo Terada, Marvin Sweet, John Wheeldon, Maila Klementinnen, Ashraf, Sue Hanna, and Justin Novak.
