500 Bowls: Contemporary Explorations of a Timeless Design

500 Bowls: Contemporary Explorations of a Timeless Design by Suzanne J.E. Tourtillott. paperback edition. ISBN: 0661741003622.

Five hundred inspiring variations on the simple, functional bowl will fire any potters imagination. Displayed on each page are bowls that reinvent and reinterpret the form, and use techniques from across the globe and through the centuries. More importantly, every piece, such as Kate Maurys wheel-thrown porcelain, Stephen F. Fabricos slab-built bowl with handles, and Ruchika Madans stoneware Fruit Bowl, testifies to the artists boundless inventiveness. Captions give each bowls size, with details on its material and glazes.
