Otto Comes to Littleton
We were honored to have master potter Otto Heino and his niece, Helen Heino, visit the Littleton Studio School and the Retail Gallery on Sunday, May 17th, 2009. Otto, who lived in Ojai, CA, was in NH for the opening of the Lifetime Achievement Awards Exhibition, at Gallery 205 at the League’s headquarters in Concord.
Otto had long been an enthusiastic supporter of the League, and more recently of the Littleton Gallery and Studio School in particular. He donated a pottery wheel to the studio when it opened September 2008, and made a special trip to demonstrate his throwing techniques to a crowd of nearly 70 enthusiastic onlookers.
While Otto concentrated on his work, Helen gave a narrative about her Uncle’s work, noting his signature double rimmed pots, and his rigorous work habits.
Following the demonstration, Otto led the crowd back to the Gallery, where he discussed his pots on display, explaining how he uses salt, sugar, and applewood ash in some of his glazes.
“ It feeds his soul to see you all here today ,” Helen told the crowd. Clearly Otto fed his audience as well. Lynn Flory, a former apprentice, said of him, “ It was like working with God. It is inspiring to be around him, it’s beyond words. "

It is sad to note that Otto passed away this past June 2009.

Otto's pottery is currently for sale at the Littleton League Gallery

81 Main Street ( next to the Village Bookstore) 603-444-1099
