She addresses the major themes that dominate and recur through all this work, including Jacob and the Angel, Lazarus, the landscape, and the Expulsion from the Garden. She examines how the artist explores these themes in each of the media, their relationships and evolution through his use of colour, line, and texture. Further, she explores the source for his inspiration and the links between his visual interest in these themes and his work as an English scholar and art critic. .

Studio Ceramics in Canada
Frederiction, NB & Toronto, Ontario, Goose Lane Editions | The Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art, 2005. First Edition, First Printing. Softcover. pp. 311. Square 4to. Pictorial covers. Richly illustrated with many black-and-white, and colour photographs, portraits, illustrations, fascsimiles, et al. No detectable flaws, contents equally without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked pages and firm, sound binding; fine. Appears unread; as new. Studio Ceramics in Canada is both a comprehensive history and a beautiful, full-colour book. But it is also much more. It is an in-depth look at the growth of ceramics and pottery-making as art forms, from their humble beginnings after World War I to the dynamism and diversity of today. Written by cultural historian Gail Crawford, a pioneer recorder of the history of fine craft, Studio Ceramics in Canada is the result of a decade of research. Conducting extensive work in the field of studio ceramics, Crawford traveled from coast to coast, undertaking countless interviews and combing public and private collections to detail the unique ceramics histories of every province and region. She touches on subjects such as clay deposits, teachers and mentors, as well as artisans and their specialties. Linking clay practice in Canada with critical developments in England and the United States, Crawford also pays homage to the people who helped bring ceramics and pottery-making into mainstream culture. Writing about people such as Bobs Howarth, who helped Ontario's Central Technical School become the epicentre of pottery; Alice Hagen, who ran a pottery school out of her Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia, home for many years; Léopold Foulem, a Quebec-based ceramist and cult figure with a national and international following; Luke Lindoe of Alberta, one of the 20th century's clay giants; founding member of the Whitehorse Potters' Guild, Peter Royle; and a plethora of artists from points in between, Crawford leaves no stone unturned. Published by Goose Lane Editions in cooperation with the Gardiner Museum, Studio Ceramics in Canada contains 170 sumptuous full-colour images of art works and more than 200 archival photographs of influential artists, studios and exhibitions. But it's Crawford's great attention to detail and love for the art form that separates this book from the rest. Destined to become the definitive history of Canadian ceramics and pottery, Studio Ceramics in Canada is the first book of its kind. It is both textural and visual, wholly delving into each region to introduce the artists, craftspeople, instructors, retailers, curators, teaching institutions and collectors who share a passion for objects transformed by fire.

Precise: Craft Refined; a Catalogue of an Exhibition Held at the Winnipeg Art Gallery, Sept. 10, 2011 to Jan 15, 2012

"Publication exploring the evolution of craft through the work of five contemporary artists who expand its definition. While each artist addresses particular issues of politics, gender, environment, and history, all the works are linked by the involvement of the hand, the commitment of time and the dedication to precision. Underlying each piece is a deep knowledge of the media and the techniques used to control and work with them. Despite the rampant integration of digital technology into all aspects of our lives, these artists remain committed to the direct involvement of the hand in the creation of unique pieces. The introductory essay is accompanied by individual presentations and artist\'s statements. Fine .
