From Guy Diehl:
"Peter Voulkos (1924-2002), was an artist known for his Abstract Expressionist ceramic sculptures, which bounded the traditional divide between ceramic crafts and fine art. Famous for their visual weight, their freely-formed construction, and their aggressive and energetic decoration. During his career, he cast his sculptures in bronze; in other periods he kept as ceramic and finished them with painted brushstrokes.
