Warren MacKenzie Ceramic Lidded Vessel - Marked
Warren MacKenzie (American, 1924-2018). Large studio ceramic lidded vessel or jar. Glazed stoneware, marked along the footrim.
Warren MacKenzie was a renowned Minnesota studio potter. A student of Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada, he is credited with bringing the functional Mingei tradition to the United States, and spreading it through his own art and mentorship of students during his long tenure at the University of Minnesota.
Height: 10 1/4 in x diameter: 10 1/4 in.
Condition: Lid shows no signs of chips, cracks or damage. The vessel shows signs of scuffing and marks indicative of a lifetime of use, with minor chips along the footrim as expected from age and use. There are several areas inside the vessel where there is glaze missing, original to the artistic process.
