Kecskemet, Hungary - Ceramics

  Hungary
    Kecskemet

Term: Summer 
Dates: July 5 - August 7

Description: This program is based at the International Ceramics Studio (ICS), a world-renowned ceramic art center located 35 miles south of the Hungarian capital, Budapest. The ICS, a highly regarded institution known for fostering excellence in ceramic arts, brings together a community of artists with whom our students interact. Classes are held in a professionally active ceramic arts environment, where students share equipment and facilities with artists from all over the world. The mission of studio is to promote the formal, aesthetic and technical development of ceramics and to help foster creative skills. Students have exceptional 24 hour access to workshops and equipment, breaking down the barriers between education, life and art. Students have access to five national museums, including naïve arts, folk arts and photography, as well as excellent private collections. Hungary is also home to two of the best porcelain factories in the world -- Herend, a modern factory in which the work is still hand painted, and Zsolnay, a fading but fascinating factory in the southern town of Pecs.

Kecskemet, Hungary - Ceramics

Highlights: The program includes a four day trip to Ceský Krumlov, a small medieval Bohemian town in a crook of the Vltava River in southern Czech Republic. One of Europe's untouched gems, the town center is resplendent with original Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture. The UNESCO World Heritage Monument Castle Ceský Krumlov dates to the early 13th Century and includes one of only three remaining Baroque theaters with original stage machinery, scenery and props. Also incorporated into the Castle complex are museums and a large ceramics collection, displayed in its two kilometers of wine cellars. Students also travel on the river to Zlatá Koruna, one of Bohemia's oldest monasteries.
