Elisabeth von Krogh (b. 1947) is a renowned figure in the field of ceramics in Norway, with her works acquired by numerous Norwegian collections and her artistic oeuvre well-known beyond the art world. Her works are challenging to describe without resorting to clichés, as they are playful and colourful yet serious and complex. The duality of her works is their strength, and the term 'playful' assumes a new dimension in her realm. Play, like ceramics, is one of the few arenas where both body and mind are simultaneously challenged. This is the first comprehensive monograph on Elisabeth von Krogh, which opens up to the prospective of playful utopian spaces. The text is available in English and Norwegian.
