Pierre BAYLE (1945–2004). - Lot 288
Pierre BAYLE (1945–2004). Coffee table featuring shuttles and geometric shapes. Engobed terracotta (known as “sigillata”), set in a patinated iron frame. Unsigned. H_34 cm W_82 cm D_45.5 cm Provenance: private collection in Occitania, belonging to a friend of Pierre Bayle. Note: A ceramist from the Languedoc region, trained in Castelnaudary, Pierre Bayle combined traditional craftsmanship with avant-garde experimentation, establishing ceramics as an art form in its own right, straddling the line between utilitarian and decorative objects. He creates works in sigillata clay—first engobed and then smoked—with surfaces treated to highlight their texture and crackle patterns, which lend depth and uniqueness to his pieces.
