Ceramic Artwork "Corrida" by Vilà Clara Ceramistes
Handcrafted, glazed ceramic artwork, framed in wood
It depicts a dynamic, stylized bullfight in an arena, composed of 18 distinct glazed tiles
The characteristic earthy tones, combined with dark green and golden yellow glazes, perfectly reflect the studio’s unique artisanal style
Originally designed as an exclusive tabletop platter, this piece is equally at home as a framed wall panel
The Vilà Clara Ceramistes studio, located in La Bisbal d’Empordà—a renowned Catalan center for pottery— has been renowned since its founding in 1950 for its use of local red clay and its experimental high-temperature firings
This specific piece comes from their highly sought-after “ceramic picture” collections from the 1970s and 1980s
94 cm wide, 64 cm high, and 5.5 cm deep
Total weight of 19 kg
In very good vintage condition, with only slight signs of wear on the frame
A rare mid-century modernist work of art
