Almost Nice: Biot and Roland Brice.

We're still in Biot staring through the window of the small museum in the centre of the village at examples of ceramics done by well known artists associated with Biot.
Roland Brice was born in 1949 and was much influenced by Fernand Leger. There are examples of his work in the Fernand Leger museum which stands outside the village of Biot. It's well worth a look if you enjoy modern art.

Almost Nice: Biot and Fernand Leger


Back to Biot simply because I had paperwork to do there. Whilst there I happened upon a small museum that I'd never noticed before. I don't often go to the village itself because the parking's a nuisance and Murphy's Law dictated that the museum was shut, of course, but there were some interesting exhibits in the window including this nice ceramic piece done by Fernand Leger.
I did my best with the photo and though the colours have come out quite well, they really were stunning, I haven't been able to capture the sheen of the glaze unfortunately.
