Emmanuel Cooper, ceramicist, died
Opened the Ceramic Review and found that Emmanuel Cooper had died on 21 January. He taught on the ceramics course at Middlesex University when I was there. He was a memorable character with his white handlebar moustache and clogs, and his writings on eroticism in art. I am interested in his work because of its excitingly textured glazes and deceptively simple forms. His prominence in books on ceramics and glazes says everything about his importance in the field.
Sad to hear it - I never met him, but seems like everyone else I know did.
ReplyDeleteConsidering I didn't know him more than passing in the hall I was saddened to hear it!!
