About the event
Le musée d'Art moderne de Collioure invite Claire Lindner à investir l’espace côté galerie.
Ses formes en grès, sans cesse parcourues de dynamiques contraires, subjuguent par leur vitalité et leur mystère coloré. Car toujours la couleur les dépasse, tout comme en son temps, elle submergea Matisse à Collioure.

Claire Lindner is a ceramic artist who lives and works in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. She is a graduate of the École Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs de Strasbourg and also studied at the Camberwell College of Arts in London.
Trained in the visual arts in France and the United Kingdom, Lindner has established herself as a leading figure in contemporary artistic ceramics. Her sculptures, composed through the assembly, knotting, and twisting of soft clay coils, are distinguished by their undulating curves and pastel hues, which evoke a sense of organic movement. Her work is traversed by living forms, animal, vegetal, human, or microscopic, that blur the boundaries between the natural and the imagined.
In her practice, Lindner plays with contrasts and tensions: between softness and hardness, lightness and density, matte and gloss. This dialectic creates a deliberate visual ambiguity, an oscillation between what seems solid and what appears fragile. Her creative process always begins with a reflection on movement, flow, and color; each glazed stoneware piece emerges from meticulous attention to folds, tension, and material plasticity, evoking the vitality of living matter.
Her work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including at the Musée Théodore Deck (2023), Fondation Villa Datris (Toucher Terre, 2022), MO.CO. Montpellier (Contre-Nature, 2022), Musée Adrien Dubouché (2020), Maison des Arts de Châtillon (2019), the Musée des Arts Décoratifs de Paris (2011), and the Grand Palais during the Salon Révélations (2015).
