Richard Notkin’s Cooling Towers Teapot (Variation #8) combines the fifteenth-century form of Chinese Yixing teapots with contemporary social commentary, addressing issues such as the futility of nuclear war and the spiritual danger of weapons of mass destruction. Notkin deliberately kept his work formally simple to stress what he saw as the moral lessons crucial to the survival of humanity.
