Mr. Jan de Rooden (1931-)
Potter / ceramic artist.
Jan de Rooden's can be described as severe, introvert, monastic. The strong
forms of his objects however are just one aspect of his work: he is also uses
abstract and symbolic images, glazes and colours to give express himself
artistically. His inspirations are Korea and the Cyclades (the icon which from

and architectural structures.
Jan de Rooden, like his wife Johnny Rolf, is seen as one of the leading Dutch
contemporary ceramists. |
