In this episode of Full Expression , host Dan Imhoff travels to Pond Farm Pottery—a National Historic Landmark tucked into the redwood-covered hills of Sonoma County—to explore one of the most remarkable artistic lineages of the 20th century. Historian Leah Halper traces Wildenhain's extraordinary journey from the Bauhaus in Germany through Nazi persecution, exile, and ultimately to California, where she helped establish the visionary Pond Farm artists' colony before dedicating her life to teaching generations of ceramic artists. Dan speaks with master potter James Dahl, one of Wildenhain's former students, who shares firsthand memories of her legendary summer workshops. Through stories of silent studios, relentless discipline, discarded pots, and lessons that extended far beyond ceramics, Dahl reveals why Wildenhain's teachings transformed not only artists, but lives.
