Twilight of the Masters from Rogan Productions on Vimeo.
Rogan Productions presents a short film directed by John Gutierrez.
Twilight of the Masters offers a moving portrait of three of the
world’s most dedicated craftsmen in the twilight hours of their careers.
The film follows these craftsmen as they grapple with their legacies
and consider how their craft might be passed onto the next generation.
Twilight of the Masters travels to Minnesota to hear the story of the
legendary potter Warren Mackenzie, to Japan to follow the knife &
samurai sword master Kazuo Myojin, and finally to Scotland to hear from
the longest serving malt-master in the Scottish whisky industry, David
Stewart from the Balvenie distillery in Dufftown.

Our goal for this unique residency is to provide the time and space for a
serious, driven ceramic installation or experimental artist to develop a
site specific piece over the course of 2 months (February and March)
using our visiting artist gallery as a private studio culminating in a
one month exhibition April 2016. More often than not, installation and
site-specific artists are not given the time needed to properly install a
piece prior to the opening of an exhibition, thus comprising the
craftsmanship and conceptual development of the piece envisioned. The
selected artist will have 24/7 access to the studio and all equipment,
with completely unrestricted use of our 12’x16′ visiting artist’s
gallery, website representation and show advertising by the gallery.
Applications will be juried by RISD Professor David Katz, along with
myself and Charlie Barmonde, the owner. The deadline is currently November 20.
