My name is Tara Cuthbert and I am in my second year of study in ceramics at
university in Lismore, Australia.

I am planning to travel around northern India for two months from mid
November and I would love to visit and talk with any contemporary Indian
ceramists, who could share information on themselves and places I could see
contemporary ceramics whilst on my travels in India.

Any help is much appreciated.

thanking you,

Tara.

Dear Tara

If you are going to be in Delhi, visit "Triveni Art Gallery". In Jan
97 when I was there, they had an exhibition by Jyoti Basu - a potter
who does cat sculptures. The art gallery should put you in touch with
potters in Delhi. Two more places to visit in Delhi - "Garhi
Village" and Delhi Blue Pottery. Another Delhi based potter's name
that I remember is "Pandurang Darusso". There used to be a pottery
near Delhi called "khurja Pottery", check it out. Hope this helps.
