Join Charles Mathes, AAA for a lecture on Picasso Ceramics. Literally tens of thousands of ceramics were replicated at the Madoura Pottery in the South of France after Picasso’s originals. The secondary market for these Picasso ceramic editions is now larger than ever with internet bidders paying record prices based solely on on-line images. While the vast majority of Picasso ceramics in the international marketplace are genuine, it can be a mistake to assume that everything is what it seems to be. This lecture is not the usual survey of what Picasso ceramics are and how they came to be, but instead what they may not be and what they definitely aren’t.  

A reception with refreshments will follow the lecture, which will be held in the historic National Arts Club, a National Landmark building and the former home of Governor Samuel Tilden.

This lecture will NOT be recorded.

The 2024-2025 Lecture Series is sponsored by Thomas Folk, Ph.D., AAA.

1.5 CE credits
 

Veteran Appraisers Association Certified member Charles Mathes, AAA, was director of a New York City gallery specializing in Modern Art. Now a consultant and advisor, he has handled and appraised hundreds of Picasso ceramics over the course of his career and has written and spoken frequently on the subject.
