Ceramic Artists



Bi-annually, one of the most lucrative awards in the art world is awarded to Ceramic Artists by the International Ceramic Competition. Ceramics has long been a respected and admired art form. The ceramic pieces featured by Autumn Hill Artworks are carefully handmade by current New England Ceramic Artists who are highly skilled and have graduated from some of the most prestigious institutions of Ceramic Art in the world. By purchasing a piece of ceramic art from Autumn Hill Artworks, you become part of this rich and respected tradition.

At any given time, the pieces featured by Autumn Hill Artworks Ceramic Artists may be those that have been handmade using various ancient techniques, such as Raku ceramics or may even represent current styles, like the sleek minimal lines of modern ceramics.

Raku ceramics originated in Japan in the 16th century as a method used to make raku vessels for traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. Raku ceramics is referred to as a low-fire technique where Ceramic Artists quickly heat a bisqued piece to a red-hot temperature, then take the piece out of the kiln and reduce it in some type of combustible material like wood chips or newspaperRaku ceramics is decorated with low-fire glazes usually containing a lot of frit - a vitreous compound, in different degrees of gloss. You can usually, but not always recognize Raku ceramics within Autumn Hill Artworks by those pieces with depth of color and a crackled-type finish.

Where Raku ceramics refers to a technique, modern ceramics refers to an expression of style by Ceramic Artists, many of whom are featured by Autumn Hill Artworks. The term “Modern Ceramics” also refers to a time period, specifically the post-war era. Pablo Picasso is said to have been influential in igniting the interest of Modern Ceramics when in 1947 he studied ceramics because of his desire for self-expression using an entirely different medium.

Autumn Hill Artworks features only modern ceramics in the sense that all pieces are handmade by contemporary New England Ceramic Artists, but we carry a wide range of styles from modern to contemporary to traditional. We hope you enjoy our selection and encourage you to invest for both tradition and value since all of these fine pieces are handmade by respected and talented New England Ceramic Artists!
