For the weekend of Nov 19-22 Anno Artem will be hosting the work of our newest resident artist Gary Griffiths for a showcase event. Gary is a pottery artist from Pottstown, PA and holds an art degree from Kutztown University. Gary is a master at combining figurative sculpture and drawing with his pottery to create modern artifacts that seem to exist outside of time.

“Pottery is a folk art that expresses beauty through everyday objects. I’m interested in how a design can enhance the shape of a pot and how a glaze can break and pool around that design. I make my clays and glazes by hand. I am influenced by the Leach pottery movement and other styles of art and design.”

Gary will be in the gallery Friday, Nov 20 at 6:00 for a talk about his technique.
