American Art Pottery, published by the Cooper-Hewitt Museum, is a scholarly and richly illustrated examination of the American art pottery movement that flourished during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Produced in conjunction with a museum exhibition, the book explores how American potters combined artistic creativity with innovative ceramic techniques to create decorative and functional works that reflected the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement. The volume traces the development of major pottery firms and studios, including influential makers such as Rookwood, Grueby, Newcomb, Marblehead, and other prominent American art pottery producers. Through detailed photographs and expert commentary, it highlights the distinctive glazes, forms, motifs, and craftsmanship that set these ceramics apart from mass-produced wares. In addition to showcasing individual pieces, the book places American art pottery within its broader historical and cultural context. It examines the movement's connections to changing tastes in home decoration, the rise of artistic craftsmanship, and the influence of European design trends on American ceramic artists. Profiles of designers, artisans, and manufacturers illustrate the creative forces behind many of the period's most celebrated works. Serving as both an exhibition catalog and a reference work, American Art Pottery provides collectors, historians, and decorative arts enthusiasts with valuable insight into one of the most important movements in American ceramics. Overall, the book celebrates the beauty, innovation, and enduring appeal of American art pottery while documenting its significant place in the history of decorative arts.…
