Recenzii
“Thomas W. Brunk has written the definitive history of Detroit’s Pewabic Pottery. A meticulous researcher, he carefully reconstructs the chronological narrative by mining previously unavailable documents, including glaze notebooks, daybooks, and letters.” —SUSAN J. BANDES, professor of art history and museum studies, Michigan State University, and author of Mid-Michigan Modern: From Frank Lloyd Wright to Googie
Notă biografică
THOMAS W. BRUNK (1949–2018) was curator and archivist of Michigan State University’s Pewabic Pottery from 1974 to 1981 and cofounder of the Pewabic Society Inc. in 1979, serving as its president in 1988–1989. He was considered Detroit’s foremost chronicler of subjects such as Pewabic Pottery, the Scarab Club, and the Masonic Temple, among others.

Descriere
Pewabic Pottery is a significant manifestation of the international Arts and Crafts movement in Michigan. As art historian Martin Eidelberg points out in his introductory essay, it was also a striking example of the coterie of talented American female ceramists who broke with traditional norms, seeking to excel both as artists and as entrepreneurs. This chronological history of Pewabic work—the most extensive study published to date—focuses primarily on the pottery as operated by Perry and Caulkins, and then up through the beginning of the Pewabic Society Inc. in 1979. Authored by the most recognized scholar on Pewabic Pottery, this study relies heavily on archival sources to achieve a comprehensive history of one of Michigan’s most interesting art studios.
