It serves as a central platform for ceramic art and craft in Israel, bringing together artists, curators, visitors and others engaged with material culture.\n\nThe 8th Biennale brought the expressive potential of material to the forefront of art and culture. It explored the wide-ranging possibilities of ceramic expression throughout the material&#8217;s life cycle \u2014 from wet to fired \u2014 and across different approaches to making, from ancient traditions to contemporary innovations, highlighting the contribution of ceramics to contemporary art.\n<p class=\"exhibition-credit\">Based on the exhibition text published in Portfolio Magazine<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/baraktwito.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/biennale-of-Israeli-ceramics-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/baraktwito.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/biennale-of-Israeli-ceramics-1.jpg\" alt=\"Barak Twito \u2013 Glazed porcelain, terracotta, stoneware, various firing techniques, acrylic paint, hand-built and press-molded forms\" width=\"592\" height=\"397\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 592px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 592\/397;\" \/><\/a>\n\n<hr>\n\n<p class=\"exhibition-colophon\">\n<strong>Doll Figurines<\/strong><br>\nPorcelain, terracotta, stoneware, traditional and acrylic glazes\n<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"exhibition-credit\">\nPhotographs courtesy of Leonid Padrul, \u00a9 Eretz Israel Museum, Tel Aviv\n<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wet\/Burnt \u2013 The 8th Biennale of Israeli Ceramics Eretz Israel Museum, Tel Aviv, 2016 Curated by Dr. Eran Erlich Doll Figurines Text accompanying the work in the exhibition catalogue Material carries social meanings embedded in culture.
