EventsRegistration for participation in the 5th edition of the Biennial International Competition dedicated to artistic and traditional ceramics will be open until 5 February 2018. This competition aims to stimulate research through the renewal of shapes and methods of expression in the context of ceramic production, by identifying decorative solutions that can successfully combine past and present through the reinterpretation of traditions, styles and decorations.
