Synopsis
|
This film portrays the life of the Belgian ceramist, Max Van der Linden (1922-1999). We discover his unique approach of art through his account and that of his friends and relatives, through archives, photographs, and through his work. Max lived among the villagers around him, but met people from all origins as well as many painters, sculptors, musicians... These experiences permeate his ceramics. His work depicts man's struggle, loneliness and friendship... Amazing mixes of traditions and modernism, his ceramics are filled with the noise of our history and life and bring reassuring peace and harmony.
