Atelier Pierre Culot
"Pierre used to say to his collaborators that the earth had a memory", Pascal Slootmakers
Pierre Culot (1938-2011) was a ceramicist and sculptor. Passed by the Art School of the Abbey of Maredsous, he was trained in contact with the greatest ceramicists of the post-war period.
Sculpture took on more importance in his work from the 1970s.
Pierre Culot will obtain several international prizes as a ceramist. However, he avoided locking himself into a single discipline, opening up to sculpture, which became increasingly important throughout his career. The artist was awarded the Young Belgian Sculpture Prize in 1973. A landscaper, he has also to his credit the creation of private gardens and installations in public spaces.
Considered one of the greatest European ceramicists of the post-war period, Culot created work that thoughtfully lived on the verge of art and functionality. Sculpture took on more importance in his work from the 1970s and his art has been shown at Stedelijk Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum and Palais de Tokyo.
Located a 45-minute drive from Brussels, the studio of artist Pierre Culot (1938-2011) is open by appointment, and for artists-in-residence.
