Museo internazionale delle ceramiche
Museo internazionale delle ceramiche, Ceramics museum in Faenza, Italy.
The International Museum of Ceramics preserves over 60,000 ceramic pieces spanning from 4,000 BCE to present day in a 16,000 square meter exhibition space.
Founded in 1908 by Gaetano Ballardini, the museum suffered severe damage during World War II bombings but reopened in 1949 with new donations from international artists.
The museum collection includes ceramics from ancient Mediterranean civilizations, medieval Italian workshops, and contemporary works by Picasso, Matisse, and Fontana.
Visitors can explore the museum Tuesday through Friday from 14:00 to 19:00 and weekends from 10:00 to 19:00, with regular admission costing 10 euros.
Every two years since 1938, the museum organizes the Faenza Prize, an international ceramics competition that contributes new contemporary pieces to the collection.
