Jorge Wilmot
Jorge Wilmot (b. 1928 - d.January 12, 2012) was one of the most distinguished artisans of Mexico,〔 〕 and has been credited with the introduction of stoneware and other high fire techniques to the country.〔 〕 His work is also known for its more austere, Oriental-inspired designs blended with Mexican motifs. His work has been widely sold and exhibited both in Mexico and abroad and he has trained and influenced generations of ceramicists at the school he established in Tonalá, Jalisco.
==Biography==
Jorge Wilmot was born in Monterrey, Nuevo León, in 1928.〔 〕 He began artistic studies at the Escuela de Artes Plásticas in the Academy of San Carlos in the early 1950s before going on to Europe.〔 〕〔 There he studied at the Instituto Franco-Italiano in Paris in 1953 and worked in Sweden with ceramicist Limberg Koge Londgren. He had further studies in Basel, Switzerland, in design at the trade school from 1953 to 1957.〔〔
Wilmot began working for the ceramics industry in Monterrey where he generated a number of innovations in technique and design. However, few firms kept Wilmot on after adapting his ideas.〔〔 This eventually pushed him to relocate to Tonalá, Jalisco, by the 1960s to established his own workshop, studying the ceramics history and culture of western Mexico.〔〔 〕 In the 1960s, Wilmot held annual exhibits of his works at the Inés Amor Gallery, which brought him much attention. This led to his work being noticed and accepted abroad, which brought him wealth and fame.〔 〕
Wilmot died on 12 January 2012 at the age of 83. 〔 〕
