Fondazione Prada's Porcelain Room Explores Chinese Export Ceramics

Over 1,700 Chinese export porcelain pieces, created between the 16th and 19th centuries, are on display at Fondazione Prada's Torre in Milan. Curated by Jorge Welsh and Luísa Vinhais, the exhibition 'The Porcelain Room' occupies the fourth floor and is divided into three sections. The display, designed by Tom Postma Design, features a room-within-a-room structure clad in brown velvet, with multiple showcases and a gold-decorated intimate space. The works demonstrate how Chinese manufacturers adapted to diverse markets, social groups, and religious sensibilities. This show is part of Fondazione Prada's broader research program to expand beyond contemporary art into multiple expressive languages.
