How does a man who fled from art education later become one of the most influential ceramics educators of the twentieth century? The answers to these questions inform us about Ken Ferguson's journey as an artist, pedagogue, and agent provocateur, and shed light on the changing place of ceramics in American art' Garth Clark, from 'A Matter of Timing' "
