Ceramics of the future -
Best-of exhibition in the castle hall

August 3 + 4, 2024 in the castle hall
of the Oldenburg Castle

On the theme of "brand new - brandnew", the participants of the market submit objects and thus demonstrate their mastery of craftsmanship and artistic ceramics. These often idiosyncratic reinterpretations of the theme provide an impressive overview of the diversity of contemporary ceramics. The Keramiktage Oldenburg are thus also a "school of seeing".

The Detlef Schmidt-Wilkens Prize for Ceramics and the Audience Prize will be awarded among the exhibitors.

"Ceramics in the powder tower"

June 30 - August 25, 2024, Pulverturm Oldenburg, Schloßwall 3

This year's prizewinner Nora Arrieta presents colorful ceramics in the medieval Powder Tower that transport the viewer into magical visual worlds. With her works, the artist creates an ironic iconography of the present that is peppered with ceramic alchemy, humorous absurdity and bold adventures. She not only draws on classic ceramic techniques, but also makes sophisticated use of digital possibilities such as 3D printing and photo transfer.

Opening with award ceremony: Sunday, June 30, 2024, 11.15 am

Opening hours of the exhibition:
Friday, 14.00 to 18.00
Saturday and Sunday, 11.00 to 18.00
