Ceramic Artist Tours

International Ceramic Artist Tours: Some years ago I received a letter from the renowned English ceramic artist Bernard Leach. As you may know, he was closely related to Japanese ceramics. In his letter he wrote, ”One might think that my greatest love is Japanese ceramics but it is Korean ceramics that moves me most.” Our ceramic tours to Korea are unparalleled. On them you will meet many of Korea’s Human Cultural Treasures and other outstanding artists in ceramics. Tour the great ceramic villages and have a portion of your stay subsidized by the village of Gangjin, Korea, home of “first under heaven” celadon. They are celebrating their millennium years. Touch the heart of Korean ceramics as we travel throughout this beautiful land and meet its wonderful ceramic artists. You may discover that you agree with Bernard Leach.

Autumn

If you are interested in ceramics, you must visit Korea.


     The Great Onggi Tour.  In autumn, you will find the first Onggi Exposition Ulsan Korea OEUK 2010.  The tour will also visit Andong famous for its mask dance and travel throughout Korea visiting highly respected ceramic artists from many areas of ceramics.  We are considering an extension to YiXing, China.

     The World Ceramic Biennale if you travel in autumn – those museums are always open with ongoing great ceramic exhibits.

You will not regret joining one or more of our ceramic adventures to Korea.

     Some of our artist visits are by special invitation.  In addition you will stay at quality hotels and travel in your own exclusive bus.  Contact us for more details, price and tentative itineraries.

CAO A08/ International Ceramic Artist Onggi Tour


   Onggi is Korea’s oldest and perhaps most fascinating ceramic art form.  This year Ulsan City will hold the first annual Onggi Exposition.  Called OEUK 2010 for Onggi Exposition Ulsan Korea.  Dates are pending.

   This tour will stay there for two days while traveling throughout Korea to witness the full breadth of Korean ceramics.

   While this tour is looking for participants who are ceramic artist, it is open to anyone interested in witnessing one of the oldest ceramic forms in the world.  In addition to attending the Onggi Festival, if the dates are right, you will also experience the Andong Mask Dance Festival.  We will visit Andong in either case. You also travel to many of Korea’s more important ceramic areas.  You will meet personally many of the Human Cultural treasures and other outstanding ceramic artists of Korea.  An optional tour to YiXing, China where you will meet with some of China’s best teapot artists is also available.
