This retrospective brings together for the first time the breadth of Lane's practice, including his early utilitarian pots, clay paintings, decorative objects and beads, as well as the monumental tile murals he created as commissions for Los Angeles architects. Lauren Cross traces Lane's entire artistic career, from his family heritage and upbringing in New Orleans, to his relationships in the diverse community of Los Angeles' El Sereno neighborhood and Brockman Gallery in Leimert Park, to his innovative approach to making a living from his art. The volume concludes with personal commentary from Lane himself, from a never-before-published, in-depth interview with two fellow ceramicists in 1988.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Doyle Lane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 164657057X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646570577\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Marquand Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Doyle Lane","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48801378533631,"sku":"9781646570577","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/doyle-lane-doyle-lane-9781646570577","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
