Gustave Tiffoche is one of the great French stoneware artists of the late 20th century. He started his earthenware works at the age of 33.
"In 1961, Tiffoche made his first approach to pottery at Norbert Pierlot, in Ratilly. That year the gallery of the Castle exposes the great names of the ceramics world: Bernard Leach, Shoji Hamada, Raîja Tuumi, A.Cumella, Daniel de Montmollin, Georges Jouve, M. and Y. Mohy, Jean and Jacqueline Lerat, De Vinck. He met and became friends with several of them along the way.
Two years later, he set up his workshop in Guérande. He began to produce unique pieces in parallel with a production of utilitarian pieces and built his first wood-fired kiln in 1963.
In 1966, he participated for the first time in a ceramics exhibition at the Hôtel de Sens in Paris, then at the Maison de la Culture in Caen, "Les Potiers contemporains".
He organized his first personal exhibition of ceramics in 1968 at the "Michel Columb" gallery of Marie-Jo Marot in Nantes. On the walls, the paintings are of Gaston Chaissac. Exhibits came one after another afterwards, throughout France and abroad: Stuttgart in 1969, Montreal in 1970, Munich in 1971, Faienza in 1972, Dakar in 1984 and Sarrelouis in 1994. At the same time, regular exhibitions at the "convergence" gallery in Nantes allow the artist to continue his artistic evolution and questioning.
He created a monumental ceramic fountain for the IUT in Saint-Nazaire in 1981. Other monumental works in stoneware will follow in La Roche-sur-Yon, Niort, Melle, Rennes, Bouaye, IRESTE of Nantes...
Between 1970 and 1985, many young ceramists came to learn or perfect their craft, or collaborated directly with him by working in his workshop. Among them, of note: Jorgen Hansen (Denmark), Miguel Bosh (Spain), Micki (Doherty) Schoessingk (United Kingdom), Jacques Fleuret, Pascal Castagnet, Odile Maisonneuve, Françoise Dufayard (France), Suzanne Schurch, Édouard Kohler, Pia Koller (Switzerland)."
