This first major retrospective exhibition highlights the art of Wayne Higby (b. 1943), one of the most innovative second-generation artists coming out of the post-World War II American ceramic studio movement. More than 60 ceramic objects and drawings are used to explore the forms, techniques, and firing processes used throughout Higby's career, focusing specifically on his groundbreaking work in raku earthenware, as well as his later production in porcelain.
