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.
