Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Ceramic mural 8 feet high and 45 feet long has been ed by Yugoslavian artist-designer Robert Yachevich; 26; in five months; working three days a week. Called Earth; it combines modern techniques with primitive styling-and is a showpiece for the different materials stocked by Yachevich's employer; Village Ceramics in Etobicoke; where the mural is on display. The dominant color is green and the central portion is in shades of red; baked into clay and then glazed to give it personality. Yachevich came to Canada to be close to Indian art. [Incomplete]
