𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗘 • Rago, Wright, and LAMA are proud to present 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗱 & 𝗢𝘁𝘁𝗼 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘇𝗹𝗲𝗿, an intimate selection of works the artists retained for their own personal collection. This presentation brings together more than 50 ceramics chosen by the Natzlers as particularly meaningful examples of their shared practice, offering a rare perspective on the work they themselves valued most.
United in life and artistry, Gertrud and Otto transformed twentieth-century ceramics through an extraordinary creative partnership: Gertrud as a master of form, throwing distinctly modern vessels of remarkable refinement, and Otto as an alchemist of glaze, whose tireless experimentation produced surfaces of exceptional depth, color, and complexity. With most of these works appearing on the open market for the first time, the collection offers a uniquely personal window into the vision, experimentation, and enduring legacy of two of modern ceramics’ most influential artists.

This auction will be followed by 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝗿 & 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰𝘀.

Discover the beautiful glazed stoneware of Jun Kaneko. The forms are simple but their scale and surface give them a real presence in a room. Kaneko leaves room for the clay itself to speak, using subtle shifts in color, pattern, and texture rather than relying on ornament. Together, his Dangos and wall slabs show what the artist does so well: taking the familiar language of ceramics and pushing the boundaries to something much bigger, more architectural, and completely his own.

Tony Marsh’s 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘝𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘭 𝘚𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘦 (1996) takes one of the oldest forms in ceramics, the vessel, and turns the idea completely inside out. Each of the individual elements in the still life contain hundreds of tiny perforations, transforming solid clay into something that feels nearly weightless. The vessel is still recognizable, but it can no longer really contain anything. Light passes through, shadows become part of the form, and the objects inside begin to feel less like traditional still-life objects and more like fragments of coral or shells collected along a shore.

His process was incredibly labor-intensive: he drilled the openings by hand, slowly removing material until the clay began to look skeletal. Marsh has described this approach as “addition by subtraction.” The more clay he removes, the more the work seems to become about light, air, and negative space. His years studying ceramics in Japan, combined with the influence of Los Angeles’ Light and Space movement, helped shape this fascination with making clay feel intangible. Created in 1996, this work comes from an important early period in Marsh’s exploration of this signature language, when he was pushing the boundaries of ceramics beyond the traditional idea of the pot and firmly into the realm of sculpture.
