2014 Taiwan Ceramics Biennale

Welcome to Terra-Nova: Critical Currents / Contemporary Ceramics.
The 2014 Taiwan Ceramics Biennale offers visitors a rich & expansive overview of key trends in contemporary international ceramics.
It celebrates the past, critically examines the present and looks toward to the future. The exhibition investigates 'hot-spots' in the international ceramics and engages with ceramics in the 'expanded field' (photography, architecture, moving image, sound, digital tools, etc.).
Please enjoy the exhibition and engage with the works!
