Jonathan Adler

Dora Maar Mug ceramic white / Faces in relief

From the Muse collection by Jonathan Adler, this surrealist Mug is decorated with faces in relief. Sculptural and atypical, the items in the Muse range have the particularity of bringing out in relief, poetically and surreally, body parts (parts of the face, nipples etc) borrowed from these idealised women whom our greatest artists took as their muses. This mug pays homage to the face of Dora Maar by which it is inspired. This French painter and photographer was the muse and lover of Pablo Picasso and provides an inexhaustible source of inspiration for designer Jonathan Adler. Ceramicist, designer and internationally renowned interior designer, Jonathan Adler first became passionate about terracotta and exhibited his first pottery collection at Barneys in New York in 1993. "Earth is the basis of my work and always will be", affirms Jonathan Adler. For each ceramic piece from the collection, a prototype is made by hand in Jonathan Adler's workshop located in the achingly hip SoHo neighbourhood of New York.
