John Dennison

Nebraska Clay Artist John Dennison has been awarded best of show at the 2010 Powderhorn Art Fair. John’s artist statement includes the following: “To my mind no one has better captured the artist’s experience, as well as his reward, than the 19th century writer, designer, and socialist, William Morris: “Truth is making by hand, and making by hand is joy.” No modern or postmodern rhetoric. Simple making, simple joy, simple truth. This simplicity, coupled with a good deal of curiosity, fuels my work.”
