Bill Farrell Ceramic Vase Vintage Mid Century Brutalist Modernist Yellow Brown

Mid-century Bill Farrell ceramic vase, features a semi-glossy finish in hues of brown, green and yellow, coarse grogged clay top and bottom, stamped underneath.
Farrell's circuitous route took him from studies in painting and arts education at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, to a masters degree at Penn State in 1960. Farrell taught as a k-12 educator before taking a position teaching painting and design at Purdue University. While at Purdue he accidentally offered to teach a clay class, which led to a lifetime of ceramics workshops, lectures, and international seminars throughout Europe, and in 1968 a professorship in the Ceramics Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He received a NEA ceramics sculpture award in the early 80’s, was a first year member of NCECA in 1965, and in 2000 Farrell was the artist in residence at EKWC in the Netherlands.

In very good vintage condition.
