Three Special Exhibitions for KPM’s 250th Anniversary


In the KPM anniversary year 2013, three exhibitions in Berlin show the impressive spectrum of KPM’s trend-setting porcelain art from two and a half centuries:

  • Royal Porcelain Manufactory Berlin 1763–2013. Porcelain art from private collections

KPM QUARTIER: Exhibition from September 19, 2013 – January 5, 2014

The exhibition will give guests an impressive insight into how the Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin (KPM) has given birth to high-end, trendsetting artistic designs throughout the ages – from rococo to modern. 

300 unique porcelain treasures from 18 private collections offer a never-seen-before journey through all the manufactory’s creative periods. Highlights include choice rococo crockery, ornate vases from the classical and belle-époque eras, imaginative creations of the ‘golden twenties’, and pioneering designs for functional creations.

  • KPM – Creating, Using, Collecting. 250 Years of Porcelain Made by the Royal Porcelain Manufactory in Berlin

Schloss Charlottenburg: Exhibition from September 19, 2013 – January 5, 2014

The exhibition examines three central aspects that characterize life with porcelain: Creating, using and collecting.

  • Passion for Decor. KPM-Porcelain between Art Nouveau and Art Deco. An Anniversary Exhibition.

Bröhan-Museum: Exhibition from September 19, 2013 – January 26, 2014

On the occasion of the KPM´s 250th anniversary the Bröhan-Museum presents an exhibition focusing on the remarkably beautiful decors of the Royal Porcelain Manufactory, particularly in the age of Theo Schmuz-Baudiß. Working for the KPM since 1902, he became its creative director in 1908 and gave important impulses for the manufacture´s reorientation.
