Provenance:
England & Co.;

Exhibited:
England & Co, Between Worlds: Rituals & Pagan Rites,, 2013
Note:
Grayson Perry had the largest exhibition of his works at the National Galleries Scotland this fall, entitled 'Smash Hits', which included ceramics.
While a multidisciplinary artist, it was for subverting the traditional medium of ceramics that Perry won the coveted Turner Prize in 2003. HIs award was seen as the coming of age of craft, at a time when conceptual art dominated. Of using a traditional medium and form, he comments, ‘A lot of my work has always had a guerrilla tactic, a stealth tactic. I want to make something that lives with the eye as a beautiful piece of art, but on closer inspection, a polemic or an ideology will come out of it’.
