CERAMIC ART FAIR+GLASS
The concept
Ceramic Art Fair + Glass is establishing itself as the international meeting point dedicated to the fire arts, this year highlighting excellence in ceramics and glass. Designed as a prime platform for exchange and connections in the heart of Paris, the fair brings together international galleries and artists united by a shared commitment to creative mastery, innovation, and expression through the medium.
To ensure curatorial rigor and an exceptionally high-quality selection, the event relies on a committee of experts comprising curators, gallerists, journalists, and architects. Their multidisciplinary perspective offers private and institutional collectors, art dealers, and enthusiasts an exacting and insightful vision of historic, modern, and contemporary creation.
Taking place at the heart of Paris Art Week, from October 20 to 25, 2026, the fair benefits from a strategic synergy with major events on the international calendar.
Hosted in the prestigious setting of the Maison de l’Amérique latine, Ceramic Art Fair + Glass embodies a vision of modernity and celebrates the timeless power of clay and glass through the decorative arts.

Presented to the public for the first time, these pieces explore the essential role
