SOUND OF THE EARTH – CERAMICS IN CONTEMPORARY ART

May 25, 2025 - September 14, 2025

Kunstmuseum / Kunsthalle Appenzell, Switzerland

           The exhibition Sound of the Earth. Ceramics in Contemporary Art juxtaposes works that experiment with the sculptural potential of ceramics, blurring the boundaries between high art and craft.

           The international group exhibition on ceramics in contemporary art is the first exhibition in Switzerland to explore current approaches to this medium. It focuses on artists for whom ceramics has become a core element of their practice, whether as the sole medium or in parallel with painting, sculpture or other media. The exhibition brings together works that experiment with the sculptural potential of ceramics, blurring the boundaries between high art and craft.
