Description

Lucie Rie: A Life in Ceramics Tony Birks explores the life and work of Lucie Rie, a pioneering British ceramicist. Born in Vienna in 1902, Rie fled Austria after the Nazi occupation and settled in England, where she became a leading figure in the development of modern ceramics. This biography provides an in-depth look at Rie's artistic career, from her early days as a student to her later success as a studio potter. With detailed descriptions of her work and its significance, Birks sheds light on Rie's innovative approach to ceramic design and her enduring influence on the art form.
