Welcome to the Ceramics Resource Web Site of DePauw University |
|
|
The Ceramics Resource web site is designed to provide the
beginning ceramics student an overview of topics pertinent to
the study of the ceramic medium in a studio environment. The
sections titled "Clay", Glaze" and "Kiln"
are largely technical discussions of the materials and tools
commonly used in a ceramics studio with emphasis given to the
techniques we are set up for here at DePauw. The "History"
section is a brief review of the time frame of ceramic history
and the major cultures contributing to this history. Because
of copyright restrictions, most of the illustrations in the history
section are limited to work done before 1925. Appreciation is
due to the Indianapolis
Museum of Art for their cooperation in making their collections
available for reproduction here.
