Come experience the fine craftsmanship of Robert Hasselle's clay work at the artist reception at Chapel Hill's Turning Point Gallery on Friday, July 10th from 6-9pm.  His remaining works will be on display through July.

Robert (Bob) Hasselle is a South Carolina potter and sculptor who has worked in the art field for over forty years.  In the 1970’s, he was the head of the sculpture department at the Cincinnati Art Academy where he began the ceramics program. Bob’s renowned work has been included in many private and public collections such as the permanent collections of the Cincinnati Art Museum and the Huntington Museum in West Virginia.   

Bob has recently developed a unique process for pit firing. Vaporized chemicals and combustibles are trapped during the firing and settle on the pots to form unusual patterns on the burnished surfaces. Each pot is a one of a kind creation with a unique story to tell.
