About the Item
Mado Jolain 1921-2019 ceramic vase with black and gray spatter abstract expressionist glaze application on each surface and intense blue interior. With handle. Signed MJ.
Iconic abstract drawings and forms of the French ceramic artist Mado Jolain.
Mado Jolain was born in Paris in 1921. During the Occupation, she joined the School of Decorative Arts in Paris and the drawing and sculpture workshops at La Grande Chaumière. In 1950, the ceramic workshop Mado Jolain moved to Montrouge.
All the production of Atelier Mado Jolain is turned, then worked, developed in different ways, from turned forms. Member of the Chamber of Trade Union Ceramists and Workshops of France, present at all Salons Decorative Art Workshops, Mado Jolain was a contemporary of other ceramists of his era: Jacques Blin, President of the Chambre Syndicale, Fernand Lacaf, Roger Capron, Robert Deblander, Pol Chambost, The Argonauts, Norbert and Jeanne Pierlot, Jacqueline Lerat. She created mainly ceramics for the home and the table with enamel decorations more and more stylized over the years. In 1955 Denise Majorel organized an exhibition Mado Jolain in her gallery La Demeure-Rive gauche. Mado Jolain ceramics were sold in the Primavera Printemps shop run by Colette Guéden. Her work is the subject of many quotes in magazines such as Arts and Decoration (1952) and Furniture and Decoration (1949-1956). In 1964, Mado Jolain made a trip to Japan where she visited the Hamada workshop, and in England in the footsteps of Bernard Leach. Despite these visits to masters of ceramics after the war, Mado Jolain remained inspired mainly by the research of great architects like Le Corbusier, Jean Prouvé, Alvar Aalto. In 1963, she exhibited her garden ceramics at the Galerie du Siècle a gallery of Saint-Germain des Prés. In 1963, she made a cloister wall for the greenhouses of Auteuil on a commission from Daniel Collin, landscape architect at the Direction of gardens of the city of Paris.
