G O R D O N    C R O S B Y

       Gordon was born in India in 1938 and came to England in 1947. From 1956 he studied painting at Wimbledon School of Art, followed by a post-graduate year at the Institute of Education, London University in 1960, where, under the guidance of William Newland, ceramics soon took over his life. This was followed by three years part-time study at the Central School of Art, with Ruth Duckworth, Dan Arbeid and Bonnie Van Der Wettering. From 1961-1990, teaching was Crosby's main preoccupation, chiefly as Head of Art at Wimbledon College, although he continued to ‘pot’, exhibiting at Heals (London), Primavera (Sloane Square), Crafts Centre (Hay Hill), Anschel (Kings Road), New Ashgate Gallery (Farnham), Candover Gallery (New Alresford) as well as undertaking numerous private commissions. He also has work in Denmark, Holland, Australia and America (Newark Museum). He now resides and works from his studio in Ludlow. His work is shown regularly by Galerie Besson, London (www.gordoncrosby.co.uk).
