New 2024
The museum's exhibition takes place in the heart of the Hôtel Valence de Minardière from December 1 to May 27, 2024.
The fruit of generous donations and more particularly that of Monique Nanos, it is orchestrated in 5 stages, offering an enlightening journey through the different dimensions of contemporary ceramics: from enamel, to stoneware, from glazed terracotta to earthenware and sigillata. each stage reveals artistic treasures, revealing the technical and aesthetic evolution of this age-old art. In the last stage of the journey, the ceramic becomes sculpture.
