Seeing Things
Alison Britton is one of the world’s leading ceramic artists, as well as being a prolific writer and educator, who was awarded an OBE in recognition of her achievements. She emerged as part of a revolutionary group of artists from the Royal College of Art in the 1970s, whose work was angular, abstract, urban, a little bit feisty and postmodern. Her distinctive pots, acclaimed for their abstract surface finishes and architectural quality, can be found in major public and private collections. At this special session, get the inside track about her remarkable career.
