Two Otto Heino (American, 1915-2009) Studio Pottery Vases, Ojai, California, 2002 and 2008, ovoid vase in matte aubergine glaze, artist's mark and "02," ht. 9, vase in bronze green glaze, artist's mark and "08," ht. 6 1/2 in. Provenance: From Otto Heino's final inventory which passed by descent to the consignor. Note: Vivika and Otto Heino were artists working in ceramics throughout the second half of the 20th century. They collaborated as a husband-and-wife team for thirty-five years, signing their pots "Vivika + Otto," regardless of who actually made them. Clean lines and distinctive glazes mark their work; avoiding ceramic trends, they focused on traditional and utilitarian pottery. They were part of a generation that sought to redefine the relationship between ceramics and modern art. The Heinos were awarded the Silver Medal from the International Ceramics Exhibitions in Ostend, Belgium in 1959 and the Gold Medal at the Sixth Biennale Internationale de Céramique d'Art, in Vallauris, France in 1978. Their work can be found in private collections and institutions including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Smithsonian Institution.
