Pottery Documentaries


Recommended Posts

Anyone have any recommendations for pottery documentaries? I’ve been watching the goldmark gallery ones over the years, but I can only watch so many UK potters making Japanese-inspired pots in wood fired kilns before I need a change of pace lol. So maybe something more on the modern side.

Ton a day Isaac Button:   Isaac Button; Country Potter Pt. 1 (youtube.com)
There are three more short clips; look, find. ...perhaps not so modern? ...and yet, timeless.

I'd enjoyed the NHK Ceramic Treasures series.
The entire catalog may no longer be available from one location; look, maybe find more.

I've enjoyed the Goldmark ones as well....

The Spanish brothers who fire with local brush, I'll try to find again...

Re: Korean Ceramic Master 

At his show at The Muckenthaler, Fullerton, I spoke to Kim’s son about the technique for these carved, double-walled pieces and I commented on the celadon glaze. He explained that it is a clear glaze but that the natural porcelain alluvial clay of their region contains iron. What might be considered inferior in China because it’s not pure white is a benefit for the desirable celadon. He imports Chinese porcelain for pots as well and for decorating slip.
