ART MART CERAMIC STUDIO: ST. CLOUD 1978
Filmed (most likely) in the summer of 1978, this Super 8mm film documents SCSU art department graduate, Steve Mears, throwing pots in a small studio on my parents property in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Originally used as a car garage and pluming workshop, the outbuilding was converted to a working ceramic studio by my father in the early seventies. Over the approximate ten years the Pot Shop was operational, perhaps a dozen artists worked in and sold artwork from this humble structure. Though the studio was most commonly referred to as the Pot Shop, it’s exterior was adorned with a sign reading “Art Mart” which was originally from a small gallery in downtown St. Cloud. Over the approximate ten years the Pot Shop was operational, perhaps a dozen artists worked in and sold artwork from this humble structure.
