Rare ball vase half sphere in turquoise ceramic crystallizations by antonio lampecco, made in the years 1970/80s, diameter 29cm. Vase in perfect condition, signed with the monogram "la" under the vase. Biography: Antonio alberto lampecco (minucciano, 1932) is a belgian ceramist internationally known for his spherical (round) vases with small necks. Born in italy, the young antonio, from the age of thirteen, worked up to fourteen hours a day in mason's small factory, in the middle of the ceramics center, near venice. For four years, he worked on modeling, looking for difficulty in order to express himself better. At seventeen, he arrived in belgium at rebecq and continued to grind, knead, turn. Then luck turns and he is called to maredsous, in the ceramics workshop of the abbey, connected until 1958, to the famous school of art. Gold medal at monza, faenza and prague, prize of the city of vallauris, in 1982, international prize of bratislava, in 1984, retrospective at the house of culture of namur (1979-80), he was invited everywhere, from berlin to new york, from montreal to paris, participating in many exhibitions around the world. However, antonio lampecco never sought to make a name for himself, he never claimed any other title than that of potter. Having always focused on simplicity, he seeks to model exceptional shapes, irreproachable, covered with black or polychrome matte enamels. He will then be attached to the direction of the art workshops of the abbey of maredsous of which he will be responsible. Bibliography: fina gomez collection, 30 years of contemporary ceramics, 1991. His work can be compared to the ceramists jacques and dani ruelland.
