Article on Doyle Lane, a potter

[Hulk]

Article from yesterday's NYTimes:
Doyle Layne’s Dazzling ‘Weed Pots’ at Kordansky Gallery - The New York Times (nytimes.com)
I'm curious why the Times hasn't enabled commenting on this article?

There's an article in one of year afore last's Ceramic Monthly mags (JAN-21):
Doyle Lane: Weed Pots (ceramicartsnetwork.org)

The Times ran a different article a few years ago...
Adding a New Name to the Canon in Clay: Doyle Lane - The New York Times (nytimes.com)
This one has comments, which can be interesting...

Some of the comments are interesting!

What great glazes! And nice to read in the comments references to the Natzlers and Arneson, the extremes of the clay heroes of my student years. We all made weed pots, too. 
Layne’s persistence is obvious. His focus on the variety of surfaces he could achieve seems to me to be way beyond Gertrude, even. Perhaps because he also focused on what sells - Reds!! Oranges!! I, too, want to hold them!

there's also an old issue of studio potter magazine that has a brief interview with doyle and 4 other black ceramicists from los angeles.

this is a good roundtable discussion between ricky swallow who curated the exhibit and artists that knew doyle.

 

and this is another short video about him

and the catalog the gallery put out after the exhibit in los angeles is great very much worth buying.
