The Jane Hartsook Gallery is pleased to present the Annual Greenwich House Pottery Artists Exhibition. Each Spring we honor and celebrate the hundreds of talented individuals who sign up for class, prolifically make work, and bring vitality to our tight-knit clay community. The works on display are carefully selected by each artist, and represent their most successful piece or own personal favorite. A ceramic showcase this vibrant, varied, and vast cannot be found often!
“Being of ‘ancient vintage,’ I have a long corridor of memories to draw from. Since Jane Hartsook, I’ve experienced so many different directors, teachers, studio managers, assistants, and students. Within this stream, what has remained a constant is the essence of a warm and encouraging community. I’ve witnessed a stimulating exchange of ideas, the richness of diverse backgrounds and lives – all with the common denominator of an intense and passionate focus on clay.
The yearly exhibition of work done by the students has retained a vitality and scope of imagination that has been a source of great pleasure. The sheer trajectory of the work has been stimulating and impressive.
Working with clay these many years allowed me to bring along my involvement in the dance and music worlds. From each of these practices, I drew upon my intense interest in the reach and breath of a ‘line.’ This was not conscious, but a realization that came with the immersion in doing. I’m eternally grateful that I still have the strong desire to work with clay, and that Greenwich House Pottery exists where I and so many others have found a precious haven.”
