The exhibition “Gubbio honors Alan Caiger-Smith” will feature 25 works from Caiger-Smith last kiln firing in 2006 and some 30 pieces representing his artistic evolution.
The artist specifically requested that his studio pieces be complemented by the tin glazed works of Umbrian potters. Nine ceramicists have been thus invited to join the exhibition. They are from Deruta, Gualdo Tadino and Gubbio, Italian towns where the lustre technique has always been a relevant symbol of the tradition of pottery making.
A special section will honor the memory of Alan Peascod, the British-born Australian ceramicist who passed away in January 2007.
