Dirk Hubers (Amersfoort, 24 September 1913 – Guanajuato, 1 November 2003) was a Dutch ceramist, who lived and worked in Bergen, North Holland and starting in 1958 in the United States.
[1] Hubers is notated for being "one of the first to apply abstract graphic designs on his objects.
"[2] After secondary school Hubert first worked as a clerk, ordinary seaman and farmhand.
[3] Huberts came into prominence in 1953, when with Bert Nienhuis, Harm Kamerlingh Onnes, Piet Wiegman and Frans Wildenhain he took part in the exhibition "five contemporary potters" in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, which was one of the first museum presentations of modern artisan ceramics in the Netherlands.
[4] Donhauser (1978) recalled, that "Dirk Hubers and Nicolas Vergette are two examples of potters who, through their distinctive form language, added to the diversity of style and attitudes which comprised the American studio-pottery scene during the 1950s.
