Quickly becoming a reference book, Antoine Candau lifts the veil on Mithé Espelt’s incredible life. Born in 1923, this young artist refused to chase fame, an activity she calls insane, narcissistic competition. The journey of this avant-garde woman – who refused to sign her work – constitute a real saga, made even more fascinating by the appearances of famous characters that were part of her everyday life. Far from being reserved for specialists, this beautiful book can be read like a novel and brings an innovative light on post-war ceramic art in France.
