Summary: Portraits of Clay by Sandra S. Smith
Review: This book is not worth the postage Amazon used to send it to me. I was extremely disappointed by the brevity of the book and the very few potters mentioned in the book.

Rating:
Summary: Mata Ortiz is well represented by this book!
Review: This is a great book about the history of Mata Ortiz with many wonderful photos of the artists and their work. Not as complete as the 'many faces' book, but WELL worth the price. Some of the same pots from this book can be seen in 3D at www.ortizpots.com. Having lived in Mata Ortiz, i've seen many publications, few as well made as this one.
