The IV International Festival of Post-Modern Ceramics, Ceramica Multiplex 2012, opens today at the City Museum of Varazdin, Croatia.  This International Juried Exhibition had more than 400 artists from around the world enter.  The artists selected from their respected countries are listed below.  I was honored to have a piece selected in the show and wish I could have attended the opening, but I'm busy teaching and have other commitments at this time.  If you are in Europe, specifically Croatia, stop by and check out the show, it should really be a great show.
