Edition Louvre Victoire. Similar glazed ceramics p.189. The ceramics of Jacques (1928-2006) and Dani (1933-2010) Ruelland are representative of the "playful and colorful aesthetic of the post-war period", starting in the 1950s. At that time, Jacques Ruelland, a graduate of the School of Fine Arts in Paris, left with Dani, his wife, to Vallauris, where the couple quickly understood their attraction to ceramics. They settled in Paris and worked with clay, inspired by nature. Then in the 70s, they returned to the south of France and set up their workshop at Mont Ventoux and the angles. From this time, new forms and new glazes were born, from which these works presented today are issued. The ceramics of the Ruelland couple is a fusional work in which Dani brings the form and the dimensional variations, in which Jacques brings the vibration and his colored version of the world by the research of the enamels and the matter.
