Grace, Rose, and Alice have been the inspiration for many Navajo potters who have recently tried to make pottery for the \"market.\" Navajo clay-work for hundreds of years was made for domestic or ceremonial use only. No railroad stations or museums existed in this vast, sparsely populated desert landscape to spark a demand for tourist goods or for scholarly endeavors that would bring the art of potters to the fore.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter graduating from an Indian school, Alice married Jerry Cling. They have four children who make pottery now, too. The family digs the brown-firing clay from a special place near Black Mesa, screens it to eliminate impurities, and mixes it with sand for temper and with water to make it workable. Alice's particularly unusual aesthetic contribution to the Navajo pottery renaissance is the magnificent coloration she achieves on the softly burnished and lightly pitch-coated surfaces of her forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlice says that these elegant, gracefully austere forms did not come to her easily. Her first pots twenty years ago were \"so ugly\" that she vowed to keep shaping and polishing her clay \"until it was beautiful.\" She applies an iron bearing slip to the finished dry clay form and polishes the surface with a river washed stone or a Popsicle stick. She says that some women use corncobs to burnish. The chemistry of the clay body and the clay slip, the atmosphere in the fire, and the ash that falls onto the pots from the juniper wood combine to produce the red-orange-purple-brown-black blushes that enhance the unusual veneer of Alice's pots. Through trial and error, she has developed her own techniques.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlice applies a light coating of warm pitch to the warm pots after firing, and burnishes that down to a distinctive low sheen. Usually her pots are totally undecorated except for the natural pigmentation from the clay and the fire. Many traditional Navajo storage jars have a biyo, a beaded necklace around the shoulder of a vessel made from a textured coil of the same clay. Alice does not like to use decorations because her grandmother disapproved of using the traditional designs on non utilitarian wares. Instead, Alice allows the beautiful pigmentation to serve as the decoration, thus forging an original path for the works she creates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral of Alice's jars were chosen by Joan Mondale for use in the vice president's house in Washington, D.C., during their tenure, along with the art of other contemporary American craft persons. Alice has taken numerous awards at Flagstaff and Santa Fe Indian fairs and powwows. Alice's work is unmistakably Navajo but has flair that sets it apart from any other Indian pottery being produced today. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2018-01-25T18:22:17-07:00","created_at":"2018-01-25T18:22:17-07:00","vendor":"Navajo","type":"Pottery","tags":["Pottery Type_Navajo","Price_$500-$1000"],"price":54000,"price_min":54000,"price_max":54000,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":3639952474152,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"NAP012","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Navajo Pot Pitch Glazed by Alice Cling","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":54000,"weight":3629,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2878\/7500\/products\/kokopellioutlet.com_Navajo_pottery_Alice_Cling_IMG_0542.JPG?v=1518761902","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2878\/7500\/products\/kokopellioutlet.com_Navajo_pottery_Alice_Cling_IMG_0543.JPG?v=1518761903","\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2878\/7500\/products\/kokopellioutlet.com_Navajo_pottery_Alice_Cling_IMG_0544.JPG?v=1518761904"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2878\/7500\/products\/kokopellioutlet.com_Navajo_pottery_Alice_Cling_IMG_0542.JPG?v=1518761902","options":["Title"],"content":"Size: 6\" Tall x 4 5\/8\" Wide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlice learned how to make pottery from her mother, Rose Williams, an innovative Navajo potter who had been trained by her aunt, Grace Barlow, who had raised Rose at Shonto.

This name was given to him after a relative had carried the sleeping boy home late at night following his initiation ceremony. How appropriate that name has become his hallmark. The world outside the Hopi Pueblo knows him as Preston Duwyenie: artist, teacher, father, friend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBorn in Hotevilla, the third of three mesas on which the Hopi people have lived for centuries, Duwyenie grew up with beauty all around him. \"Everyone has an art. My mother was a basket weaver, my father a Katsina carver. You grow up learning how to make art.\" This may be true, but as with art in any cultural context, there is bad, mediocre, and exceptional. Duwyenie's efforts definitely fall into the latter category and beyond. The simplicity of balance, textures, and colors within his ceramic and metalwork sets this soft-spoken man's art far apart from his contemporaries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike his ancestors he gathers his clay just outside the pueblos, he offers prayers to the earth while digging the clay, and like them he is inspired by the beauty and awesome strength of nature. He uses potting techniques that have been utilized for more than a thousand years, but in terms of style, there is a point where Duwyenie steps outside this realm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter moving away from the pueblo as a boy, Duwyenie learned of life in the mainstream by growing up and working in Phoenix. The thought of pursuing the arts as a career did not come to mind until, by chance during the summer of 1978, Duwyenie and his family passed through Santa Fe during the Indian Market festivities. It was there that he discovered the Institute of American Indian Arts. Shortly after, he enrolled and finished his degree there and moved on to the arts program of Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Duwyenie graduated with honors from CSU in 1984, and accepted a teaching assistantship there for the next few years while he began work on his master's degree. In 1988, Duwyenie moved to Santa Fe where he accepted a position as professor of traditional pottery and jewelry at the Institute of American Indian Arts. In 1996 he relinquished his position to focus on his art full time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuwyenie considers himself to be relatively conservative, not abruptly changing styles or mediums, as so many artists seem to, searching for a sort of artistic commitment. His designs are rooted in centuries old legends of the earth's creation, of how time began, and of how it passes. His shifting sands series integrates ceramic and metal, reflecting one moment in time for the artist.

This name was given to him after a relative had carried the sleeping boy home late at night following his initiation ceremony. How appropriate that name has become his hallmark. The world outside the Hopi Pueblo knows him as Preston Duwyenie: artist, teacher, father, friend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBorn in Hotevilla, the third of three mesas on which the Hopi people have lived for centuries, Duwyenie grew up with beauty all around him. \"Everyone has an art. My mother was a basket weaver, my father a Katsina carver. You grow up learning how to make art.\" This may be true, but as with art in any cultural context, there is bad, mediocre, and exceptional. Duwyenie's efforts definitely fall into the latter category and beyond. The simplicity of balance, textures, and colors within his ceramic and metalwork sets this soft-spoken man's art far apart from his contemporaries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike his ancestors he gathers his clay just outside the pueblos, he offers prayers to the earth while digging the clay, and like them he is inspired by the beauty and awesome strength of nature. He uses potting techniques that have been utilized for more than a thousand years, but in terms of style, there is a point where Duwyenie steps outside this realm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter moving away from the pueblo as a boy, Duwyenie learned of life in the mainstream by growing up and working in Phoenix. The thought of pursuing the arts as a career did not come to mind until, by chance during the summer of 1978, Duwyenie and his family passed through Santa Fe during the Indian Market festivities. It was there that he discovered the Institute of American Indian Arts. Shortly after, he enrolled and finished his degree there and moved on to the arts program of Colorado State University in Fort Collins. Duwyenie graduated with honors from CSU in 1984, and accepted a teaching assistantship there for the next few years while he began work on his master's degree. In 1988, Duwyenie moved to Santa Fe where he accepted a position as professor of traditional pottery and jewelry at the Institute of American Indian Arts. In 1996 he relinquished his position to focus on his art full time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuwyenie considers himself to be relatively conservative, not abruptly changing styles or mediums, as so many artists seem to, searching for a sort of artistic commitment. His designs are rooted in centuries old legends of the earth's creation, of how time began, and of how it passes. His shifting sands series integrates ceramic and metal, reflecting one moment in time for the artist. He remembers watching a smooth pebble caught in sand being shifted by the wind, \"there was beauty in its isolation within the sea of sand. It was like an island.\" Among other things the series symbolizes for the artist \"the endless sands of time, and the fact that people, too are tossed about by the wind. There is always rippling in our lives.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e"}
