The artist Pablo Seminario is a local legend amongst cusqueños, virtually inventing a new form of ceramic artwork that integrates abstract modern styles with traditional Incan and pre-Incan motifs. The story most commonly told was that years ago Pablo Seminario toiled his craft with such dedication that he was near the point of utter destitution, with a family to care for. Then a visiting journalist took notice of his work. And the rest is history, including the frequent imitation of his style by Cusco copycats wanting to ride his success. But why buy imitations? Seminario Ceramicas on the Plaza de Armas sells original pottery and art overseen by the artist himself.

I was in Cusco, Peru in May and came upon Seminario Ceramis. What a find. The ceramics are very high quality and great for gifts. I wish I had more room in my suitcase for more.
