For sixty continuous years a print publication, The Journal of Australian Ceramics has documented ceramics in Australia, in 176 issues and close to 20,000 pages.
To acknowledge this significant anniversary for the Australian ceramics community, Australian Design Centre in partnership with The Australian Ceramics Association present SIXTY: The Journal of Australian Ceramics 60th Anniversary 1962-2022.
The Journal of Australian Ceramics has unified the thousands of artists in this community, as well as their generosity in passing on skills and knowledge to fellow artists and for the next generation of makers. It is because of the many that have been involved over the years that The Journal of Australian Ceramics has been such a success.
The 22 ceramic artists selected for this exhibition represent their contemporary peers and those who came before them throughout the history of Australian ceramics. All have a strong and enduring connection to The Journal of Australian Ceramics.
Curated by Anna Grigson and Australian Design Centre’s Lisa Cahill with design by Studio Garbett.
