The artist Carlo Zoli's actual series, entitled 'Stillness and Storm', evinces a poetic output derived from the concepts of struggles, challenges, energy, strength, but also stillness and serenity.
This series investigates the duality of existence, as exemplified by the heroic actions of the creatures and figures he has crafted, including deities. The passions and feelings of these figures, which remain unchanged to this day, are revealed by Carlo Zoli.
Carlo Zoli, a highly esteemed artist, is the fourth generation of his family to engage in the craft of Faenza ceramics. His artistic practice is centred on the utilisation of clay, with a particular emphasis on the creation of figurative and narrative compositions in polychrome terracotta. The artist's oeuvre draws inspiration from a multitude of sources, including mythological traditions, historical events and legendary narratives. Carlo Zoli is represented by INES Forme d'Arte, Faenza (RA), Italy.

Schang Hutter (1934-2021) was a prominent Swiss sculptor whose oeuvre is characterised by striking and emotive sculptures.
Hutter is particularly renowned for his large-format sculptures, which frequently portray human figures and faces. The artist's oeuvre is distinguished by a pronounced emotional expressiveness and an in-depth examination of existential concerns. These concerns are addressed through the exploration of themes related to the human condition, including the fundamental questions of existence, suffering, and transience. Consequently, his oeuvre is characterised not only by aesthetic elegance but also by a profound and thought-provoking impact.
Schang Hutter is presented by the Swiss gallery Art Momentum (Biel/Bienne), an important platform for an innovative approach to art.

The Harang Gallery offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience and explore the nuances and trends of contemporary Korean art.
It serves as a source of inspiration for collectors and facilitates artistic exchange between Korea and the wider international community. Each year, new emerging artists are showcased in thematic group and solo exhibitions in Korea and abroad, including overseas locations.
Harang's two primary objectives are to facilitate the international promotion of both emerging and established Korean artists, and to introduce international artists to the local art scene.

The creation of Buddhist artefacts is regarded as a karmic process, whereby the work itself is seen as a means of accumulating positive or negative karma. The creation of such objects is dependent on intricate manufacturing processes, which align with the iconometric and iconographic specifications for Tibetan Buddhist artefacts that are still produced today.
The traditional craft of statue makers and thangka painters in the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal represents a cultural asset of significant value. The Tibetan Lama Art Gallery is dedicated to the preservation of this ancient tradition, and thus the commitment to the survival of this craft.

Geology is an important part of sculptor Claudia von Boch's work. The artist creates geological frescoes, reproductions of a time abbreviated compared to nature, in which fusions, deformations, colours, drops and cracks are created through partially controlled firing processes.
Claudia von Boch's figures and objects bear witness to the connection between man and the earth. Like a skin, the layers preserve the stages of life and time within them and tell their story. Each layer represents a fragile and intimate connection with the earthly world.
Born in Canada, Claudia von Boch began her ceramic career in Argentina. Today her sculptures are exhibited across the world.
