Vitamin C: Clay and Ceramic in Contemporary Art

The latest offering in the Vitamin series – a collection of books dedicated to specific art mediums – Vitamin C is not a look at classic “studio pottery,” but rather a survey that aims to capture the zeitgeist of ceramic in contemporary art. It presents 102 of today’s most important visual artists using clay and ceramic, as chosen by art professionals from around the world. Organized A to Z by artist name, it also includes an introductory essay from Frieze London Sculpture Park director Clare Lilley exploring the wider context of clay in art. Phaidon — phaidon.com
