Bottle by André Rozay

About the Item

André Rozay was a French ceramist born on September 29, 1913 in Foëcy (Cher) and died on September 7, 1991 in La Borne (Cher). He was one of the architects of the revival of French ceramic art in La Borne. A former student of the Vierzon ceramics school and the Bourges Beaux Arts school (where he met Jean Lerat), as well as the Beaux Arts school in Paris, he has a solid background in drawing and painting. He arrived in La Borne in 1943 to work for François Guillaume with Jean Lerat in Armand Bedu's studio, thus escaping the STO (Service du Travail Obligatoire) in Germany and living in La Borne illegally. He then worked in Alphonse Talbot's workshop, succeeding Talbot in 1958. In 1962, together with Pierre Mestre, Yves Mohy and Claudine Monchaussé, he founded the Amicale des potiers de La Borne and held the first of a series of annual exhibitions in the former workshop of wheelwright Émile Foucher. The Association des potiers de La Borne took over from the Amicale and filed its articles of association in 1971. It was the forerunner of today's Association des céramistes and the Centre de céramique contemporaine de La Borne. André's work is modeled or assembled from turned elements to create utilitarian and decorative pieces. Following in the tradition of potter-imaginators, these include finials, anthropomorphic jugs and bottles, stations of the cross, virgins, religious statues, fountains and, above all, a superb and diverse bestiary!
