With Fire: A Life Between Chance and Design

With Fire is the story of ceramic artist Richard Hirsch, and an examination of the work for which he is so widely celebrated. This richly illustrated book presents the life of an artist whose career spans some of the most important developments in the American Clay Movement. Hirsch established a connection with legendary Japanese Living Treasures, the Raku and Ohi families, whose influence created a lasting pedagogical and creative link to the West that continues today.
