Making the Molecules Dance Ceramics, 1948-2008

A sister publication to Ron Sang's Montana Award winning publication LEN CASTLE POTTER. This 248 page hardback edition on Len Castle and his work includes 224 full colour photographs throughout. "You would expect that after sixty years in the game he might be tempted to slow down and simply enjoy the knowledge of what he has achieved: quite simply the finest body of ceramics that this country has ever seen. But far from it. He continues to work as hard as he ever has and to produce pots as good as any in his long history, including some which are like nothing he has ever made before, such as the superb sulphurous bowl reproduced on the cover of this wonderful book, a work that was made just this year. Of course the book itself is another product of Len's extraordinary energy as is his new exhibition Mountain to the Sea which opens in Whangarei next week." Prof Peter Simpson at the launch, 4 December 2008
