Lot 122
EWEN HENDERSON (1934-2000) VESSEL, C1985 stoneware and porcelain, hand built from coloured clays with bubbled and cratered surface, 68cm h Powerful, individual, recognisable have all been used by distinguished critics of Studio Pottery to underline Ewen Henderson's significance. A ceramicist and artist who stood apart, unclassifiable yet with a claim to be one of the most influential British potters of the last quarter of the 20th century. Each of his handbuilt thin walled vessels of porcelain laminated to richly textured stoneware and often accented by limpid cream, blue, brown and green felspathic glazes, proclaim not only a technical inventiveness but also his originality.These are entirely works of the imagination but few push their chosen materials to such extremes, caring nothing for holes, fissures or stability. His time as a student at Camberwell in the mid 1960s coincided with the teaching of Hans Coper and Lucie Rie. Despite the uniqueness of the pots of his maturity he cannot altogether have remained aloof from their influence. There is a prevailing freshness about Ewen Henderson's work because his pots demonstrate that he never looked back, creating in the moment or looking to the future. Cyril Frankel described this sense of freedom as Henderson's quest "for the ideal form whilst rejecting the influence of the wheel". The present vessel is one of Henderson's largest, only 3cms shorter than that in the V & A (C176-1986) Good condition given the nature of the fabric
