You are entering a world of magic where ceramist David Salk, turning clay into beautiful and functional pottery, is integrating past, present and future. Salk resolved to preserve the beautiful work of the Native American people for present and future genertion by replicating antique basket design in long-lasting, high-fire pottery. These "clay baskets" are the unique work of David Salk representing the work of Native American women of the late 18oos and early 1900s. Salk is also trying to preserve and popularize the beautiful rock art found throughout the Southwest as well as the stunning and intriguing ancient pottery designs of the Anasazi, Mimbres and Pueblo cultures that thrived in this same area over a thousand years ago. The pottery is highly glazed and functional and can be enjoyed as unique and stunning serving pieces. Salk’s work has been recognized for its accuracy by the Museum of National History in Santa Barbara. His clay baskets and glazed pottery are in collections throughout the United States and in over thirty-six countries throughout Europe, Asia and Africa. Salk has been written about in several art publications and has won numerous awards throughout the American Southwest. Over the years David Salk’s work has been shown in a variety of galleries including Santa Fe, NM, Sedona, AZ, Jackson Hole, WY, Alexandria, VA, Springdale, UT and several galleries in California.
