Going well beyond the traditional biography of the artist and his
works, the catalog contextualizes the cultural, academic, and
economic factors of the mid-twentieth century that influenced not
only Wildenhain's career, but also the state of contemporary
American craft...exhaustively researched and stunningly
presented...highly recommended for any library collecting materials
on ceramics, mod-century decorative arts and design, and the post
WWII arts marketplace.
