biography
Glenys Barton is a sculptor working mainly in ceramic and bronze. She was born in Stoke-on-Trent in 1944, trained at Royal College of art 1968-71 and her work has been collected and exhibited widely, in Britain and abroad. She lives and works in Essex, UK.
Barton was one of the few British sculptors working mainly in ceramic in the 70s. Her precise geometrical forms made her work highly distinctive. She gained quick success after graduating and was the British prize winner at the International Ceramics Exhibition, 1972. She was invited to serve on the newly formed Crafts Advisory Committee, as its youngest member.
At this early stage in her career, Angela Flowers offered Barton her first solo exhibition in London. This resulted in a career-long partnership with (what is now) Flowers Gallery and Barton has presented regular solo exhibitions with them since 1974.
Two early works are included in the new Ceramics Galleries (2009) at the Victoria & Albert Museum
