Jean Rivier

(Tunis: 25 October 1915 - Niort: 6 January 2017)

From 1952 onwards, Jean Rivier was a member of the group of "potters of Vallauris", the Mecca of ceramics from 1930 to 1970, with Pablo Picasso, Jean Marais, Jean Gerbino, Roger Capron, Robert Picault, Alexandre Kostanda, Jean Derval and Jacques Innocenti.

In 1955, Jean Rivier took part in a travelling exhibition of pottery from the Vallauris group in about thirty American museums.

Professor of ceramics at the School of Fine Arts in Tours from 1973, Jean Rivier also devoted himself to lithography and poetry.
