Nendo Galerie is dedicated to modern and contemporary ceramics, with the aim of establishing permanent links between the utilitarian and the fine arts.
In order to foster conversations and exchanges between different approaches to ceramics, the exhibition program will alternate between sculptors who have made ceramics a medium of expression and ceramists working on domestic forms. A rotating selection of sculptures and objects will also be on permanent display at the gallery.
The ambition of the program and the gallery’s research is international, with an important opening towards Asia and Latin America, as well as towards scenes still little considered in France, such as the Netherlands or eastern Europe.
