Statement of Purpose
The
Ohr Gallery of this exciting visual arts museum houses the largest permanent
collection of the works of George E. Ohr (1857-1917), the self-proclaimed “Mad
Potter of Biloxi.” He claimed to be
“unrivaled” and “unequaled” and was, by his own estimation, the “world’s
greatest potter.”
Despite his reputation for eccentricity, Ohr produced art pottery that
will be appreciated for centuries.
Ohr’s claim that there were “NO TWO ALIKE” is true. The thinness of the walls of his twisted
clay forms illustrate George Ohr’s unrivaled technical skill.
