 | Birger Kaipiainen
Professor Birger Kaipiainen (1915-88) was one of Finland’s
best-known ceramic artists. He spent most of his 50-year
career creating unique art ceramics in Arabia’s art department.
Kaipiainen’s colour-saturated, lush yet refined art inspired his
contemporaries to call him "the prince of ceramics" and "the king
of decorators". Kaipiainen received the honorary title of Professor
in 1977. |
