Preface by Emmanuel Bréon and David Caméo
What happens when Emmanuel Bréon - Chief Curator of the Museum of the 1930s in Boulogne-Billancourt, and David Caméo, Director of the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, conceive the project to discover the ceramic heritage of their respective cities?
They decided to show them in a joint exhibition and this book. The book writing was entrusted to Florence Slitine, project manager at the Manufacture. With the help of collectors and several museums who lend their pieces and exchange their knowledge, this is the first book that takes stock of the work of these artists. From the end of the 19th century to the 1960s, those industrial ceramic artists worked in Boulogne-Billancourt, and the town of Sèvres, on the fringes of the productions of the famous Manufacture.
It allows them to restore, in their geographical context, the work of leading artists, to discover ceramists hitherto unknown, and to take stock of the production carried out in Sèvres but outside the National Manufacture.
This book publishes unpublished works, marks, and documents, which will fascinate lovers of modern ceramics.
It contains entries relating to the following 25 artists: Paul Beyer, Berthe Cazin, Collinot and Cie, Albert Dammouse, Edouard Dammouse, Taxile Doat, Roger Dollé, Fau and Guillard, Maurice Gensoli, Gentil and Bourdet, Marcel Giberot, Keramos, Frédéric Kiefer, Raoul Lachenal, Jean Mayodon, M.F. ceramic workshops, Milet factory, Jacques Ponchelet and Abel Léger, Robj, Georges Serré, Vinsare new earthenware factory, Amalric Walter.
This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
