Quietly continuing: The teapots of Tineke van Gils
Anthony Stellaccio · 2013
Asking me to write about contemporary pottery is nearly the equivalent of asking me to hold a young child. I am not comforted by the number of times that other people have done it and I dread the clich endearments that I feel are expected of me. Furthermore, no matter how much I resist them, I will inevitably and against my will be charmed by one of them and, in the discovery of my genuine affection, experience something that can only be described as revelation. I have had such good fortune with the teapots made by Tineke van Gils.
