331: Carleigh Queenth on the quest for porcelain in 18th-century Europe

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an
interview with Carleigh Queenth. Through her position as the
specialist head of European ceramics and glass at the Christie’s
Auction House in New York City, she researches, documents, and
facilitates the sale of historical porcelain. In our interview we
talk about the sale cycle of an auction house, the European quest
for porcelain, and the factory system used for making the first
European porcelains. For more information on Carleigh follow her

On today’s Amaco Community Corkboard we have the Ceramic Arts
Reading Group. The group seeks mud artists of all
stripes, from the glaze riffraff to the
iron rabble, to form a ceramic
arts reading group for women and non-cis gender
men. This monthly reading group will
be dedicated to creative,
lively, and intellectually rigorous art
theory discussions. The group chooses
texts and material that are directly relevant and meaningful to
the personal art practices of the members. They encourage you to
join them to share and unravel ideas! Plant the metaphorical seed
and hatch the allegorical egg! For more information on the
reading group write to them at
ceramicartsreadinggroup@gmail.com (that's ceramic
arts, with an 's').
