To the museum
We went to the Centre Céramique to visit the museum.
The exhibition was about the Sanctuary that is held in the city once every seven years and about the new forms of pilgrimage. Among other things, the concerts of André Rieu were mentioned. In comparison: people nowadays come from all over Europe, or perhaps even further, to Maastricht to one of his concerts. I am afraid that I understand the comparison from a certain point of view, but I would not like to compare the contemplation of a pilgrimage with a kind of idolising an artist.
Anyway, there was a small exhibition within the larger one called An Ode, by the Flemish designer and ceramist Pieter Stockmans. The exhibition Stockman's work can be seen alongside archaeological finds, from the first earthenware objects from prehistory to the fine porcelain of Royal Mosa (Maastricht).
We liked it.
