Peter Voulkos American

Not on view

This sculpture combines wheel-thrown and slab-constructed elements, embodying an approach Voulkos embraced in the mid-1950s. Featuring asymmetrical composition, voids, deeply incised lines, and expressive glazing, this work epitomizes his pioneering process and came to be known as "Chicken Pot."
