Biography

San Francisco artist Ron Nagle has made ceramic art since the days of the California Clay Movement in the mid-1960s. Under-recognized because he uses a minority art form and a small format, Ron Nagle is nevertheless a master of this delicate art, which has recently become fashionable. Nagle pioneered the ironic ambiguity we see now among art, design, and decoration (like the Italian Memphis Group’s designs) — and even pastry and jewelry. His time has arrived.
