Ladies and gentlemen, friends of ceramics
It is a privilege for me to say a few words as a ritual gesture to open this exhibition: Ten Dutch ceramists in Pecs. I feel privileged more so, because Five churches, Fünfkirchen, Pecs is this year together with Istanbul and the Ruhr area cultural capital of Europe. Don’t be afraid I am not going to talk about cultural capitals or churches whether it be five, or four and a mosque, a beautiful one by the way.
