Bonnefantenmuseum Ceramix & Toon Teeken expositions

Art and ceramics from Rodin to Schütte in the Bonnefantenmuseum.
Showing 16.10.2015 – 31.01.2016

Now and then Mariana and I feel very cultural and in need of visiting a museum. Local museum will do. So, off to the museum, oldest son Sebastián (9) is dragged along. Mariana, never doing anything without a reason, knew there was a Ceramics exposition. It happens to be her line of business. I got to show the camera around, carefully.

After entry, and my son receiving the audio tour app, we started the circuit. A history of modern ceramics, which we started the wrong way around, just to be original. So backwards from Schütte to Rodin.

Now follows a bit of text from the bonnefantenmuseum website, if you want some useful information about this exposition I urge you to visit their website.

Under the title CERAMIX, the Bonnefantenmuseum (Maastricht – NL), Cité de la céramique (Sèvres – F) and la Maison Rouge (Paris – F) are presenting a mega exhibition about the use of ceramics by artists of the 20th and 21st century. From 16 October 2015 to 31 January 2016, the Bonnefantenmuseum will be showing a selection of over 250 top pieces from international museums and private collections.
