Ian Gregory (1942-2021) was a senior lecturer at many of the Universities in the UK and was Head of the Art Department at Milton Abbey School. Ian has visited as Honouree Professor in South Korea and lectured in many States of America.
He was elected a Fellow of the Crafts Potters Association in 1977 and later served on the council as well as being a full member of the Dorset Craft Guild and West Country Potters Association.
Ian Gregory’s career has taken him into a great many areas of the ceramic spectrum, including salt glazed stoneware, life-size statuary, raku and mixed media installation. He was one of the first potters to experiment with what has become called paper-clay and he is an innovative kiln builder who is able and often does build a kiln in a few hours for a specific piece of sculpture.
Ian’s ceramic work can been seen in many public and private collections in the UK, Europe and the USA.
