※ Film about The 9th Gyeonggi International Ceramic Biennale 2017
Korean International Ceramic Biennale (KICB) is an event to be held in Gyeonggi-do province, which is a heart of Korean
ceramics industry and culture. It is to take a review the current status of ceramic arts across the world and issues of ceramic
culture to see and discuss where we should go in the future. The KICB has been defining current status of international ceramic arts
of the time and generating discourses with diverse artistic experiments, by exploring future direction of ceramic arts and now
it will be marking the 10th event next year.
The 10th KICB to be held in 2019 is set to make new and innovative changes where ‘International Competition’ will take the
center stage as the main event of the biennale. This is a move to be differentiated from the previous events of holding various
programs under the pre-designated theme. The KICB2019 will be aligned with multi-layered academic events and workshop
programs with all the selected artists. This will be planned to drive a new paradigm of art event as an ‘International Competition’
to lead the trend of ceramic arts and as ‘platform of arts’ where workshop, performance and seminars are conducted in harmony.
