Museum Visit: Analysis of Two Ceramic Works

A recent visit to the Long Beach (California) Museum of Art permitted this writer to view and analyze two works of ceramic art, both wheel-thrown pieces. This brief report will describe those works, identifying their creators and presenting a personal response to each work.

The first piece is a wheel-thrown porcelain bowl (no date) created by Laura Andresen. Andresen studied with Austrian TmigrT Gertrud Natzier for a brief period, learning throwing techniques and glaze formulae. In 1957, Andresen began to work exclusively in porcelain.

The piece crated by Andresen is a bronze-toned bowl-like vessel with a wide mouth and gently outwardly-sloping sides
