BRICE Roland (1911-1989)
Sculptor-ceramicist, former student of Fernand Léger, he became his official ceramist from 1949. In his workshop in Biot, he worked on his own creations where we find the painter's mark - primary colors, black line, characters with rounded curves... Brice also attached himself to free forms and combined the useful and the beautiful through his vases, his dishes and his plates. He was a fervent supporter of art in the city and of polychromy, a vital dimension for the human being.
