THE POTTERS OF MATA ORTIZ

VHS Col 47min Mexico Coffin

Das Dorf Mata Ortiz im Norden Mexikos ist in den letzten Jahren als eines der wichtigsten Töpferzentren bekannt geworden. An die dreihundert Einwohner produzieren dünnwandige, fein dekorierte Aufbaukeramik, die von der prähistorischen "Casas Grandes" Keramik abgeleitet ist, von der Scherben überall im Gelände zu finden sind.
Diese Keramiktradition war jedoch 500 Jahre schon ausgestorben. Ihre Wiederbelebung kann als das Verdienst von Juan Quezada bezeichnet werden, der bis zu seiner "Entdeckung" durch einen Anthropologen im Jahre 1976 sich als Autodidakt durch Versuch und Irrtum die Techniken dieser prähistorischen Keramik angeeignet hatte und als unbekannter Töpfer in Mata Ortiz lebte, wo es sonst keinerlei Keramikproduktion gab.
Verkaufspreis: US$ 30 (US$ 50 für Institutionen) plus Versand.
In the past several years the village of Mata Ortiz, in northern Mexico, has become known as a major pottery producing center. Using raw materials from the natural environment and without the use of potters' wheels or kilns, the 300 or so potters produce exquisite, thin walled decorative pottery. The intricate designs and forms were originally inspired by the prehistoric Casas Grandes ceramics found scattered over the area.
This revival of the Casas Grandes ceramic tradition, a lost art for more than 500 years, can be attributed to Juan Quezada, who, until his discovery by an anthropologist in 1976, was an unknown, self taught potter living in Mata Ortiz, a village with no previous ceramic tradition.
Sales price: US$30 (individual), US$50 (institutions) plus S/H.

MAKING POTS ON THE WHEEL: TECHNIQUE, FORM AND FUNCTION (6 TAPES)

VHS Col. Sengl. 3040min USA 1993

In dieser sechsteiligen Serie zeigt Jerry Horning, Töpfer und Lehrer seit beinahe 30 Jahren, wie man Gefäße macht, die gut funktionieren und gleichzeitig ein Ausdruck der persönlichen Aesthetik sind. Zu Beginn wird alles sehr ausführlich und langsam erläutert; darauf aufbauend beschleunigt sich der Rhythmus, wobei auf jeder Kassette neue Formen und Techniken eingeführt werden.Kaufpreis: US$ 40 für einzelne Bänder, $200 für die ganze Serie mit 100seitigem Arbeitsbuch.
Making Pots on the wheel, a sixtape series, features Jerry Horning, a potter and educator for nearly 30 years, demonstrating and explaining the techniques necessary to make pots which function well and express one's own personal aesthetic. Initially, when dealing with the most basic steps, the pacing is slow and involves repetition, as is necessary for beginners. However, as the series progresses (each tape deals with new shapes and skills), the pace quickens and deft editing eliminates extraneous detail, so the viewer is able to focus on the new material.
This video is an excellent resource for both beginning potters and institutions teaching ceramics (high school on up). It should also be of interest to more advanced potters for the aesthetic point of view. A 100page workbook supplement is also available.{Studio Potter Newsletter}

THE ART OF CLAY PRINTING

VHS 68min USA

Das Drucken von eingefärbten Tonplatten " hat mir unemdliche Möglichkeiten des künstlerischen Ausdrucks eröffnet" sagt Mitch Lyons in seinem Video für Schulen und Kurse. Nach einer kurzen Vorstellung der benötigten Werkzeuge beginnt Lyons die fingerdicke Tonplatte auf ein versiegeltes Sperrholzbrett aufzutragen. Nachdem sie lederhart getrocknet ist, wird sie mit fünf oder sechs Schichten KaolinEngobe bestrichen, da die Farben auf dem weißen Untergrund wesentlich besser zur Geltung kommen.
Die Farben, die auf die Tonplatte aufgertagen werden, bestehen aus normalen keramischen Oxiden und organischen Pigmenten, wie sie Malerbenützen, und der Kaolinengobe. Nachdem Lyons dann vielfältige Techniken und Variationen für die Oberflächengestaltung vorgeführt hat, wird der Einzeldruck auf einen steifen Hinterstoff gedruckt, den man in Textilgeschäften kaufen kann. Dazu wird die Tonplatte und der Stoff mit einer Sprühflasche leicht angefeuchtet, der Stoff auf die Platte gelegt und dann mit dem Handroller fest angedrückt. Der fertige Druck wird für einige Stunden getrocknet, die Tonplatte kann für weiter Variationen weiterbenutzt werden.Verkaufspreis: US$ 39,95 plus Versandkosten.
Pulling monoprints from clay "has given me infinite avenues of artistic expression" states artist Mitch Lyons in this howto video. After briefly discussing the tools needed, Lyons begins by spreading out a 1/4inchthick slab of stoneware over a sealed rectangle of plywood. Once the clay has dried to leather hard, he coats it with five or six layers of kaolin slip, explaining that the color is more intense on the white slip than on the stoneware.
To mix the colored clays (which will be applied to the slipcoated slab), Lyons stirs dry pigments into water. Some are standard ceramic oxides, but others are organic pigments used by painters. Kaolin slip is then added to each pigment mixture.
Lyons demonstrates several different methods of applying imagery to the slab. When the slab is decorated to his satisfaction, he inlays everything one last time before pulling the print on interfacing material purchased at a fabric store. He lightly sprays the slab and the interfacing with water. Positioned on the decorated slab, the interfacing is pressed with the rolling pin.
After the interfacing is removed from the slab, it is hung to dry for a couple of hours. The slab can then be printed from again, or recoated with layers of white slip and a new design begun. {Ceramics Monthly}

JATUN MOLINO A POTTERY VILLAGE IN THE UPPER AMAZON BASIN

VHS 30min Col Ecuador Molinaro


Joe Molinaro's beautifully observed video shows the fully intergrated social and working life of the Quichua Indians who live in the remote village of Jatun Molino on the banks of the Rio Bobanaza in Ecuador. The video is a sensitive evocation of a traditional way of life which has evolved and survived for many centuries. It is well worth seeing for the ingenious making, decorating and firing techniques used by these Quichua Indian woman potters who achieve so much with so little. {Ceramic Review}

BETTY WOODMAN: THINKING OUT LOAD

VHS USA Woodman

Die kühnen farbigen Skupturen Betty Woodman's sind seit 30 Jahren Teil der amerikanischen KunstSzene. In diesem Interview beschreibt sie ihre Erfahrungen und ihre Einflüsse, während immer wieder Szenen aus aus ihrer Arbeit uns die Dinge zeigen, die sie gerade beschreibt.{Studio Potter Network Newsletter}
The boldly colored sculptural vessels of Betty Woodman have been part of our ceramic scene for almost 30 years. Now, in this interview with critic John Perrault, we learn of the influences and experiences that have led and directed her over those years. The dialogue is often dubbed over scenes of her working in the studio, along with shots of her finished work from past years, so that we can see the concepts she describes take shape before our eyes.
