Emmanuel Cooper (1938 – 2012) was a distinguished craftsman, writer, teacher, editor and LGBTQ activist. A potter of international standing, his work is represented in many public and private collections, both in the UK and overseas. The author of nearly thirty books he was also the founder and editor of Ceramic Review, one of the world’s leading craft magazines. For over a decade Cooper was visiting Professor on the Ceramics and Glass programme at London’s Royal College of Art. He was awarded an OBE for ‘services to art’ in the 2002 New Year Honours.

"My work is influenced by the urban city environment, by such things as hard, textured surfaces, by street lighting, neon, endless movement and a sense of urgency. Colours are those of roads, pavements and buildings, textures are those we encounter in the metropolis. All the work is fired to 1260c in an electric kiln."
