Exhibition catalog, Musées de Sens, November 18, 2023 – April 15, 2024 Mermaids, tritons, centaurs, dancers populate the world of Jean Mayodon, forming colorful and warm circles, where birds and gazelles sometimes slip in. From his beginnings as a decorator to his position as director of the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres, from his friendships and collaborations with Marcel Derny, Géo Rouard, Jean Després and Raymond Subes to his trip to Egypt, from his delicate vases to his fountains and sculptures adorning the greatest ocean liners, this catalog traces the career of Jean Mayodon and introduces us to his protean and colorful work. This volume brings together pieces from major national institutions and museums, as well as from collectors, testifying to the singularity and richness of the artist's production, considered one of the greatest ceramists of the 20th century.
