Description: Gordon Baldwin is amongst the world's most admired ceramic artists and has been making his distinctive sculptural forms and vessels since the 1950s. This well-illustrated catalogue celebrates his 80th birthday. Whiting provided a fascinating survey of Baldwin's career to date while Jeffrey Jones provides insightful observations on the context for his work, in particular the wider world of British sculpture. Baldwin's own contribution is a thoughtful meditation on his hard-won working processes and something of the philosophy that forms the foundation for his work. 0Exhibition: York Art Gallery, UK (11.2.-10.6.2012).
