Randy Johnston | An Expansive Vision - feature film about American potter | GOLDMARK
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2018
- Our documentary tells the story of one of America's most respected studio potters, Randy Johnston. Set against the backdrop of his picturesque Wisconsin studio, it gives a revealing and moving insight into his artistic journey. Kicking against his family's desire for him to become a doctor, Johnston tells of his early travels to Japan, meeting the great Shoji Hamada and apprenticing to National Living Treasure, Tatsuzo Shimaoka. We are also taken on a visit to the Minnesotan studio of his lifelong mentor and friend, 94 year old American legend, Warren MacKenzie. A deep thinker, Johnston talks about his approach to his working practice and his philosophy on art and teaching.
Having studied with Warren MacKenzie and Hamada's favourite apprentice, Tatsuzo Shimaoka, Johnston is one of the most exciting and innovative potters working in America today. He is recognized internationally as an artist who has pursued functional expression and brought a fresh aesthetic vision to contemporary form, and for his many contributions to the development of wood kiln technology in the United States. www.goldmarkart...

This the most uplifting story I've heard in months, folding laundry I began to watch and realised I'd been holding the same pair of socks for 30 min when it finished. Haha.
Keep holding those socks. You were born to do it.
Thank you for this film. I am 58 and it changed my life.
Thank you, thank you! As an in-debt artist who walked away to become a scientist with health insurance, this lovely film brought tears to my eyes. Thank you, Randy Johnson. By the way, my Dad wanted me to be a doctor too, but loved and supported my art. Someday I will meet you. I have admired your work for so many years. Back in the studio now, you and your friends are a daily inspiration to me. Stay well.
I too struggled to make a living as an artist for quite a few years but when things got really bad I got a job in a plant that makes Catylitic Converters for about 12 years.
I guess I can thank Randy's dad for that. But in the mean time I still did art and now that I'm retired from the factory I've taken up pottery again.
A happy ending and it just shows how much we are all connected in a creative way.
This is a nice inspiring film. Well done.
Beautiful film, beautiful art, beautiful man.

This reminds me of how it feels when I.m working in my studio. I sometimes forget and life outside takes over and when I walk through my studio it feels distant and my creative life miles away, but when I spend as little as 30 mins working in it again, the studio and my life feel whole again. I love this film it captures that spirit and reminds me that all of us can create this for ourselves. Sometimes we need reminding. X
.. simply put, one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen! Thank you Goldmark for giving us a glimpse into Randy Johnson's world. He is an American treasure!!
P. S.- I love all the Goldmark Gallery videos!
I'm an artist and recently have been questioning my commitment to my art. After watching this amazing artist talk with such passion, I have not doubts that I have chosen the right path, just needed to ignite that fire inside to remember how much I love being an artist and that I must not give up. Thank you!!
That's great to hear. Keep it up!
So wonderful and fun listening to his story telling. Full of humanity ... Love his pots 😍
We do too!
When you TRY to do other things but the calling for art remains and pulls. It's so refreshing to hear from a kindred soul that art is HARD to pursue in this reality. Thank you for sharing this video.
You're welcome
What a beautiful spirit. How fortunate were his students who studied with such a master artist.
thank you goldmark, absolutely breathtaking
0:15 …I’m a former potter (did most of my work from the late ‘70’s off and on to the late ‘90’s). In the last 12 years I did archaeological illustration on a dig in Israel. The biggest amount of material coming from the site was pottery sherds, of course. The most exciting thing for me was occasionally finding the fingerprints of the potter who made the piece a few thousand years ago!!!
4:42 … I built my own kickwheel modeled after the English triangular frame treadle wheel… I loved that wheel… watching McKenzie throw gets me teary-eyed… I miss making pots…
Randy seems to be brilliant at following his heart, his art. Fortunate are his teachers and his students.
Absolutely!
I really enjoy the Goldmark videos and feel so very grateful for being able to watch them. Tonight I've been revisiting three of these about great potters. I will watch them again later and still see new, inspiring things in them.
Great to hear! Thanks.
Very inspiring. I always enjoy the Goldmark films and this is one is wonderful. It’s a joy to hear an artist speak so genuinely about his life and work
Beautiful. Loved the fingerprints in the glaze!
This is such a heartwarming film. Thank you for making and presenting it. Randy captures what it's like to be driven to make art, as well as the challenges and rewards for choosing to be an artist and teacher. An inspiring human being as well as an awesome artist.
Life is Wonder or Despair. Artists point out Wonder. Thanks for sharing these wonderful artists!
Very well done documentary!
Many thanks. Glad you liked it!
Thanks for that. What a warm wonderful guy.
A talented, unassuming, genuine man. Thank you for this video. Good for the soul.
The wisdom of apprenticeship practices.
Beautiful, beautiful....the pottery, the potter and the whole story around it! Thank you!☺
Thank you...love it
So glad!
Thank You, Randy, perfect. Clay has been my passion for almost 50 years. More to come.
What a fabulous film. Brilliant.
Thank you!
Thank you, Goldmark. Great to see you recognize one of our American partners in clay.
What an absolutely riveting, unexpectedly deep and emotional story and man. My first love, clay, long abandoned, wants to return. Thank you!
Thanks for your kind words
Love his studio
What a wonderful story with a deep love for the artistry of pottery. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Thanks for your art. And thanks for what you've given to the field!
So nice of you
This was so inspiring. Love the video.
Hello from Japan. Quite a marvelous video. And he describes the perfect "line", from Hamada to MacKenzie to Johnston. Thank you for providing us with this program.
I do not know how to describe what a nice story, I felt this in my heart.
Four things I learned from the video:
1. He apprenticed under Shimaoka Tatsuzo in Japan, and also worked with Shoji Hamada.
2. He studied under Warren MacKenzie who is an American Legend.
3. He and his wife have an arrangement that they won't collaborate on each others works.
4. He says that history should be learned through countries and peoples art.
what an inspiring film! just sublime. thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very inspiring Mr. Johnston, have been a closet creative type for most of my life and your story really sent a spear through my fears. Thank you.
What a lovely video about your evolution as an artist. Thank you for passing the torch as the artists before you did.
What a lovely personality, how nicely you speak.
We agree!
As a ceramic lover I have enjoyed so much this story. Makes me stronger in this art path. Grazie
Glad you enjoyed it
This was a beautiful film thank you for making and sharing this. Some just cannot do anything other than art. It burns in their souls and they are helpless to do anything else. ❤️

Very nice and beautiful
My love for clay has exploded this year and started this year and I am going to strive to become a well known pottery and this comment is something I want to remember this year by and is a way of keeping myself on this amazing path. the year is 2020 and I just graduated hs and if I survive this craziness going on in the world this will be my future but it will be my own path with my own way and hopefully some will follow me on this yellow brick road because pottery and art is on of the pure things in this world and that can be hard to come by. while I was watching this video I was worried that I was to late to become a great but the thing that makes someone a legend is how unique they are and I was worried that there is nothing else to be done but there are always boundaries to be pushed and new ways of doing things, future me use your noggin because although right now you may not be using it the way you want it to be you will get there. do not follow every step but pay attention and make that mud your signature
thank you
beautiful
Very Tender❤
Amazing 👍🏻👍🏻
That three chamber pot that hangs on the wall, what is that for???
It just is
Or rather, what 'can' it be for? ; )
Very inspiring.
How Sweet
God dwells in the imaginations of masters, in any craft.
Thanks
Yup, when you have to, you have to, to be happy.
That losing a tool thing seems to happen to all of us....one second it’s there and the next it’s nowhere to be found😝
do i have any chance of becoming your student?
Ah the 20th Century, when a young person could just make a living being a random potter or artist and end up living in a house that nice.
Heady days!

super art
Never be afraid of the fingerprint.
An archaeologist...
I was expecting him to throw the clay 102MPH and hit a bird mid-flight
His dad invented the catalytic converter!!

:)
yes...ok...please stop calling it primitive art....it's highly sophisticated work....the work of Africans....
The word primitive is not solely in reference to African art, it is about a period in time where humans were at the beginning of expressing themselves with art. There is art that is called ''primitive'' in every culture, made by white humans too. We often hear more of primitive African art perhaps because it has often been featured in museums troughout the world due to it's high quality, inventiveness and great beauty. Peace.
Wabi-sabi.
Burn trees to make those trinkets. God.
