Beginning in 1946, Pablo Picasso became intensely interested in ceramics when he visited Vallauris, a small village in the south of France known for its pottery workshops. This encounter marked the beginning of a prolific period in which the artist immersed himself in the creation of ceramics, working closely with the Madoura workshop. Over the course of more than 20 years, Picasso created over 4,000 ceramic pieces, transforming this traditional craft into an art form in its own right. Picasso found in ceramics a playground for experimentation, exploring textures, shapes and colours in a new way. He did not simply paint or sculpt; he transformed everyday objects, such as plates, vases or dishes, into extraordinary works of art. Human figures, animals, mythological motifs and Spanish symbols are frequently represented in his creations. He often used innovative techniques such as stamping, relief, and adding pigments to create unique pieces. Picasso's approach to ceramics reflected his desire to push the boundaries of art, transforming simple materials into masterpieces, while maintaining a deep connection to the craft tradition. For Picasso, ceramics was a way to reinvent sculpture, creating tactile, three-dimensional objects while playing with the painted surface. This period of his life demonstrates his insatiable artistic curiosity and his ability to transform any medium into a platform for his endless imagination.
