Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Chip Clawson. In recent years he has been focused on making sculptural forms that are cast from concrete and adorned with ceramic embellishments. His piece, “Ode to Edward James,” features multiple twenty-foot columns that are bisected by horizontal cloud-like forms. In our interview we talk about planning large-scale sculptural works, the influence of Edward James’ “Las Pozas,” and Clawson’s time creating public art with inmates in Montana state prisons. To read more about Clawson’s work search for him on the Helena Independent Record website www.helenair.com.   Hey Red Clay Rambler fans, I have a new feature called the "Community Corkboard." It's an opportunity for you to share your ceramic event, comment on an episode, or relate other clay-community related news with the Red Clay Rambler audience. To have your event or comment featured on the Community Corkboard, send me an email through the contact link at www.talesofaredclayrambler.com/contact.    Community Corkboard, 5/23: Make and Do is hosting their first annual Canadian cup show, titled Plenty.

Archie Bray

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an audio tour of the Archie Bray Foundation with Chip Clawson. Chip worked for the organization for over 35 years and has compiled much of its history from its inception as the Western Clay Manufacturing Company in the 1880’s to the ceramic arts foundation that exists today. On our tour we visit the former brick and tile factories, as well as the beehive kilns that fired the wares. For more information on the Archie Bray Foundation visit www.archiebray.org.
