Exhibited: National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto and Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, Contemporary British Crafts (organised by The British Council), 1988-89; Aberystwyth Arts Centre, touring to Newport, Aberdeen, Carlisle, Stoke-on-Trent, Cardiff, York and Rotterdam, Alison Britton: A Retrospective (organised by Aberystwyth Arts Centre), 1990-92; Barrett Marsden Gallery, London, Complexity and Ambiguity: The Ceramics of Alison Britton, 2000. Alan wrote: 'This seeming erratic yet balanced form was featured on the cover of Ceramic Review a short time before the exhibition opened. We decided that we should buy a piece and when I went to CAA for the opening found that the institutions had not purchased this piece. I decided to do just that. At about 4.50 pm I told the staff I was starting the queue and went and stood on the doorstep. The following two hours seemed like a fortnight'. Pat later wrote: 'When this pot came home, it had spent more time away than it had here'. CONDITION REPORT: Appears good with no obvious signs of damage, repair or restoration. Please see catalogue entry - "incised signature and dated 1987" to base. Very small bubble firing imperfections as expected to be seen and part of the texture.
