Normandy-born ceramist Juliette Derel (1918-2007) moved to Vallauris in the early 1950s, where she married Jean Rivier, also a ceramist, with whom she worked until they separated in 1961.
Vallauris was then a Mecca for art and ceramics; Juliette Derel frequented Picasso and his nephew Javier Vilato. In this creative effervescence, the ceramist's work was prolific: often creating utilitarian pieces (mirrors, crockery, vases), she turned more and more to sculptural works, unique pieces in chamotte clay.
This monograph gives an account of the life and work of Juliette Derel, who took part in numerous exhibitions in France (Musée de Arts Décoratifs, 1969) and abroad, notably in Montreal (1959), Caracas (1960) and Prague (1962).
