This October, ceramic sculpture steps out of the margins and into the Parisian spotlight with Manifest Paris — a six-day celebration of form, fire, and fearless creation. Nestled in the gilded Matignon Saint-Honoré district during Art Week, this ephemeral event is more than just an exhibition: it’s a statement.
Launched by the team behind Ceramic Brussels, Manifest Paris is a bold capsule concept — part gallery, part salon, part experiment — committed to redefining ceramics for the cosmopolitan collector. Forget teacups and nostalgia. This is ceramic as sculpture: raw, radical, and thrillingly alive.
“There’s a creative electricity in clay,” says Jean-Marc Dimanche, co-founder of Ceramic Brussels. “Manifest Paris is where that energy meets elegance — and sets the tone for a new chapter in collectible art.” The location? A temporary venue pulsing in synergy with Paris Art Week’s most exclusive hotspots, just steps from the Grand Palais.
The format is hybrid, the vision global. It’s not a fair, not quite a show — but something sharper, looser, more seductive. Expect curated installations from boundary-pushing artists, a refined sales experience, and conversations that blur the lines between craft, sculpture, and contemporary desire.
For the modern man of taste — the one who travels for inspiration, collects with intuition, and lives with deliberate curiosity — Manifest Paris offers a fresh portal into material sensuality and sculptural soul.
This isn’t just about art. It’s about presence, process, and the pleasure of witnessing something being shaped — and reshaped — by hand.
