George Ohr Pottery: “No Two Alike”
Description:
The great ceramist George Ohr (1857-1918) was boastful, combative, deliberately eccentric and hugely ambitious. He called himself the Mad Potter of Biloxi and once told an interviewer, "When I am gone, my work will be praised, honored, and cherished." He was right about that. But the roughly 50 bowls, cups, vases and pitchers in this stunning exhibition testify to a creative sensibility much different from his bumptious public persona. They are marked by an exquisite delicacy of touch, a subtle sense of humor, an extraordinary formal sophistication and a Picasso-like inventiveness.
