IAC MEMBERS’ EXHIBITION: MEDITERRANEAN CERAMICS AND THEIR GLOBAL INFLUENCE

| 16.09.2024 – 31.12.2024 |

Opening: 16.09.2024

Curators: Alberto Guerreiro, José Antunes

Given its geostrategic importance, the Mediterranean has been the stage for countless historical events, many of them inseparable from the cultural progress of humanity, producing an impact that extends well beyond its territorial dimension – Portugal being a case in point – establishing itself as one of the most influential cultures in the world.

This exhibition reveals precisely how this influence can be established in the artistic universe of contemporary ceramics. Based on a competition organized by the International Academy of Ceramics (IAC) and aimed at all of its members, forty-four (45) artists from twenty-six (26) countries were selected, and their work clearly demonstrates the inspirational power of the ancient culture of the Mediterranean.

The exhibition is a rare opportunity to come into contact with a multifaceted set of works of great artistic quality in terms of what is being produced today in the field of international designer ceramics, expressed either by following the artistic tradition and techniques of antiquity, or through innovation, using renewed techniques reporting current socio-cultural or geopolitical themes inherent in the context of the Mediterranean or the world in which we live, such as forced migration, climate change or the timeless theme of the ‘conflict’ of cultures.
