Gallery Space

The gallery space is characterised by the 15th-century peperino door frames, and arches supported on marble pilaster capitals. Exhibitions are held in this space 8-10 times a year, normally connected with the international residency program. In addition, display units containing a selection of works by past artists in residence provide a permanent display of ceramic works.

Imagine taking your classes in a 15th-century room in the very heart of Rome. We teach in this space, where you will be surrounded by changing exhibitions of ceramics, painting and sculpture by international artists.

We have a slab-roller, extruder and several electric wheels. There is also a well-equipped library of art-history and ceramic texts.

We even have a studio dog! Ciuffo is CRETA Rome's mascot and well-loved studio companion.
