Meeting

The Potters Guild of B.C. holds its next general meeting on
Wednesday, April 15, Van Dusen Gardens, 3/th & Oak streets,
Vancouver. Following the 7:00 p.m. social hour and the 8:00 p.m.
business meeting, David Atamanchuk will give a slide show and
commentary on the beautiful pottery of the Tzu-chou potters

of the Sung period (960 - 1279).

David graduated in ceramics from the Vancouver School of Art
in 1977 and received a Japanese Ministry of Education schol-
arship to study in Japan. From Apri] 1979 to very recently
David studied undér Professor Mikami at the Idemitsu Museum,
in addition to having worked further on his interests at both
the Tokyo National Museum and the Hakone Museum.

David studied both Japanese and Chinese ceramics, but has
mainly concentrated on Chinese ceramics from the Sung and Yuan
periods for the past year. The slides you will see are David's
own and they represent works actually seen and held by him.
This promises to be a fascinating evening: don't miss it!
