Studio Ceramics is a definitive survey of the V&A’s twentieth-century and contemporary British ceramics collection. Featuring artists such as Rachel Kneebone, Grayson Perry and Edmund de Waal, the book highlights how today’s ceramicists push the medium into new artistic territory. Their innovations build on the groundbreaking work of earlier figures like Bernard Leach, Michael Cardew, Lucie Rie, Hans Coper and Alan Caiger-Smith, who transformed ceramics into a modern art practice by drawing inspiration from global traditions.

With an illuminating essay by V&A Senior Curator Alun Graves and an extensive visual catalogue, this volume is an essential reference for ceramic enthusiasts and collectors.
