The ceramic sculpture of Johan Tahon (Belgium, 1965) is powerful and expressive. Though evolving in an original and individual way, it is rooted first of all in artworks and myths of the past. His figures go straight to the essential, seeking neither to seduce nor to deceive; they express the density and complexity of the human condition.

The Musée Ariana is hosting the exhibition MUR | Murs – Jacques Kaufmann, ceramic architecture. This is the first time that the museum will be extending into the Ariana’s grounds with five architectural and monumental installations whose starting point is essentially brick.
