James (Jim) Greig was a New Zealand ceramic artist born in 1936. He originally studied architecture at Auckland University but became interested in pottery after meeting Len Castle. Greig attended Castle's evening classes for three years before moving to Northland to set up his own pottery studio. He went on to become the resident potter in charge of the art and design centre at Massey University before setting up his own studio in Greytown in 1968.

In 1978, Greig was granted a QEII Arts Council grant, which allowed him to travel to Japan, where he studied the techniques of Japanese potters and developed strong connections with the pottery community. He was awarded a Japan Foundation Fellowship in 1982 and spent a year living, working and studying in Japan. During this year, he exhibited in the highly regarded Tachibana Ten exhibition and at the Akasaka Green Gallery in Tokyo. Greig more...
