Chester Nealie: Etched in Fire
5 June - 25 July 2021, Bathurst Regional Art Gallery
Over six decades, the charismatic New Zealand-born, Gulgong-based master potter Chester Nealie has amassed a wealth of scientific and technical knowledge of the clay and glazes he uses in his pursuit of aesthetics through the making of his woodfired ceramics.
This survey charts his career and will show works by Frank Boyden (US); Barry Brickell and Richard Parker (NZ); and Peter Rushforth, Alan Peascod, Owen Rye, Janet Mansfield and Ivan McMeekin (Australia).
Nealie is represented in numerous collections, including Musée National de Céramique, Paris; National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; Christchurch Art Gallery; Te Papa National Museum of New Zealand, Wellington; Art Gallery of Ballarat; and Bathurst Regional Art Gallery.
A BRAG Exhibition curated by Jan Irvine-Nealie
Video produced by Catherine Hunter and Bruce Inglis

Chester was my neighbour in South Kaipara Head. I do believe he influenced my art / craft as I'm now a sculptor. And I went to primary school with your mother.

Why am I only hearing of Chester now? I have been binge watching potters for years on KZfaq. I am glad I caught this video.

Whymsical. They belong to a different world or space that allows them to be themselves. ❤I love painting Whymsy

This video made my heart sing. I used to live in Minnesota and miss it terribly. A lot of potters like Mr. Nealie in that region. Warren MacKenzie and Richard Cooter come to mind as having similar philosophies in making.
