In the New York Times Art and Design section, author Martha Schwendener reviews the 2016 New York Ceramic & Glass Fair. Her article features Ferrin Contemporary and ceramic artist Bouke de Vries.
Lynn Byrne of Decor Art Now says, “I love this show because it is so intimate and colorful, plus it celebrates the best of old and new wares. Often times the contemporary artists are present to discuss their creations, usually with great passion… “One of my favorite aspects of the New York Ceramics & Glass Fair this year is a special exhibition, entitled Mended Ways.” She features work by Stephen Bowers, Bouke de Vries, and Paul Scott.
