Jan van der Vaart, born in 1931, is one of the Netherlands’ best known potters. He was not only a trend-setting artist and industrial designer, he also taught an entire generation of Dutch ceramicists while teaching at the Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam (1968-1990). His work is in the collection of many Dutch museums, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
