Craftsmanship Alone is Not Enough

An exhibition co-curated with Anthony Quinn celebrating a century of ceramics at the Central School of Art and Central Saint Martins. The exhibition featured work drawn from the CSM Museum and Study Collection dating back to the 1940's alongside photographic documentary images from the earliest days of the course in the 1920's. Works loaned from graduates and former lecturers from 1951 till the present formed the largest part of the exhibition. An illustrated publication of the same title was produced to accompany the show with reflections on the course by its graduates and essays by current members of BA Ceramic Design. A programme of events and lectures was developed running alongside the exhibition.
In addition a further collection of work was curated for the windows of the Pangolin Gallery in Kings Place to extend the reach of the exhibition.
A collection of original glaze samples belonging to Dora Billington, the founder of the course were loaned to the college and have since been donated to the Museum and Study Collection.
