“I make heavy, long-lasting forms for everyday human use from a mineral compound similar to cement, namely porcelain: jugs, bowls, cups and bottles. The vessel shapes are derived from Werner Düttmann’s architectural plans.”

—Uli Aigner

6 March 2021 marked the centenary of the birth of Berlin architect and urban planner Werner Düttmann (1921–1983). Düttmann’s buildings, which are emblematic of the post-war period, played a key role in shaping and influencing Berlin and its residents.

“The vessels of Brutalism Porcelain are an attempt to create a connection between the body and the qualities of Brutalist architecture. The vessels are numbered chronologically and are part of my art project One Million, an endeavour that will last throughout my life.”
