Description: "Richard Slee's ceramics are intriguing, witty and thought provoking. His work is a celebration of the domestic and the familiar, with everyday objects instilled with meaning from personal to social and political issues. His toby jugs, for example, humorously subvert this traditional icon of Englishness to express the current state of the nation." "Coinciding with a major retrospective of Richard Slee's ceramics spanning his career, this book is the definitive study on Slee's work to date and as such will be an invaluable resource for collectors, curators, academics and general enthusiasts alike."--BOOK JACKET.
