Ceramics, an art that goes up in flames

Le Temps, Jill Gasparina, June 26, 2020

Long shunned because it belonged to the decorative arts, terracotta finds a new lease of life with contemporary artists. Ceramics has completely emancipated itself from the tradition of pottery (a field in which we continue to experiment cheerfully). From trade fair stands to art schools, we can thus observe a renewed interest in the art world for this material. Artists who are not specialized in this medium no longer hesitate to embark on the production of pieces, on the fringes of their practice. A major exhibition is also in preparation at the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris, by 2020.
