UEA 838BPHans Coper arrived in Britain from Germany in 1939. He met Lucie Rie in 1947 and began work in her Albion Mews factory making ceramic buttons. Through the 1960s he taught at the Camberwell College of Art and the Royal College of Art, London, influencing and inspiring a generation of students. Following his death in 1981 a large body of his work was acquired by the Sainsburys for the collection from his widow, Jane Coper, and is usually displayed, in memoriam, in the Crescent Wing Lobby of the Sainsbury Centre.
