New Mexico is world-renowned for its ceramics, from ancestral lineages of Pueblo pottery-making to Mexican and Spanish colonial traditions. Because our local ceramic heritage is so rich, we have fewer opportunities to see great ceramic design from other parts of the world.
“Italia: Postwar Ceramics” at The Sagrada by Clay + Coda, a vintage design gallery in Old Town, provides a compact but insightful overview of Italian ceramics made between 1955 and 1975. It’s a must-see for anyone with an interest in Italian design or mid-century modern design in general.
