Description
Large-scale ceramics demand a number of considerations that do not concern most ceramicists: kiln size, assembling, weatherproofing and installation are some of the things that must be taken into account. This book discusses these issues as well as giving advice on obtaining and handling commissions. Well-illustrated with images depicting large scale works from many parts of the world and the process of their construction. It is written in a lively and entertaining style suitable for anyone with an interest in ceramics and includes examples of the authors work over a 20 year period. This new edition of this popular handbook has been updated with colour images replacing the black & white, and has an updated cover in the new series style.
