FRÉDÉRICK GAUTIER
LA T & URBANISTIC CERAMICS
With a distinct preference for simple shapes with rough concrete aspects, the quirky French designer Frédérick Gautier pays a tribute to architecture with his ‘Urbanistic Ceramics’. The ‘micro-architecture’ of the plates, cups and teapots by Frédérick Gautier for Serax resonates to the echo
of masters such as Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier and Oscar Niemeyer. In a modernist perspective, the objects represent a kind of brutalism that emphasises the texture and imperfection of the material, rendering any form of embellishment redundant.
