TEAPOTS TRANSFORMED – EXPLORATION OF AN OBJECT
by Leslie Ferrin, Guild Publishing, WI, 2000.
The color photography is this book is brilliant!  “Today the teapot has one foot in the kitchen and the other in the art world.”  120 color photographs with in-depth captions identify an eclectic mix of teapots designed primarily as art.  “For the artist, making a teapot provides daunting challenges.  As the various part – body, lid, handle, spout and foot – are assembled, each creator must solve technical difficulties within the context of design, function, and scale.  As a result, teapots are the objects with which artists in all media demonstrate the heights of their technical and creative abilities.”   This book will provide inspiration to the artist and be a visual feast for the growing number of teapot collectors.
