USA, 1967 wheel-thrown earthenware with slip welds 10¾ w x 11 d x 27¾ h in (27 x 28 x 70 cm)
Created while Voulkos was a guest artist at a small college in 1967, this vase was built during an educational demonstration workshop.
The form is a spontaneous composition that illustrates the possibilities of the ceramic material. Lot includes a comical note from Voulkos to David Crespi, the original owner, asking for payment for his time at the college. provenance: David Crespi, ConnecticutPrivate collection
