 «A publicação do catálogo da exposição Portugal Cerâmico dá uma expressiva panorâmica da cerâmica portuguesa, bem como do riquíssimo património ligado à produção artesanal e contemporânea, utilizando a argila como base. Reúne um conjunto de textos e obras selecionadas pelas 31 vilas e cidades que formam a Associação Portuguesa de Cidades e Vilas de Cerâmica (AptCVC). Fortemente enraizada na história e cultura portuguesa, a Produção Cerâmica desempenha um papel preponderante na economia nacional. Em Portugal, esta atividade secular tem-se refletido numa produção diversificada, de características singulares que variam de Região para Região e que conferem uma imensa riqueza ao património cerâmico nacional. Portugal tem dado um grande contributo às cerâmicas artística e artesanal, na qualidade e beleza das suas loiças, dos barros utilitários às mais finas porcelanas, sem esquecer a azulejaria e as mais recentes incursões no design moderno reconhecidas internacionalmente. A cerâmica é um reflexo da sociedade onde emerge, uma evidência do sentido estético, aliado às necessidades do quotidiano. a estas características, acrescem outros fatores como o conhecimento, as técnicas ancestrais, as matérias-primas disponíveis e a capacidade de inovação. a cerâmica portuguesa assume-se como referência cultural para a história das artes e dos ofícios no espaço europeu, tornando-se num importante símbolo identitário. Como alguém disse, "no princípio sempre foi o homem, o espírito e o barro", autêntico ADN destas Vilas e Cidades portuguesas vigorosamente ligadas à cerâmica.» A Direção da AptCVC
