National Museum of Contemporary Ceramics

Housed within Casa de Francisco Aguilera Basabe, a two-store building built in 1728, the National Museum of Contemporary Ceramics exhibits Cuban art pottery from 1950 to the present day. The museum houses a prestigious art collection of nearly 750 pieces, which is constantly on the increase through the buying of new works, financed by the Office of the Historian of the City, as well as donations and loans. The museum’s collection includes works by artists Juan Miguel Rodríguez, Marta Arjona, Mirta García Bush, Amelia Peláez, Sandu Darié, René Portocarrero, Wifredo Lam and Domingo Ravenet.
