Carlo Zauli (Faenza, 19 August 1926 – Faenza, 14 January 2002) was an Italian ceramist, sculptor and teacher. Teacher at the Gaetano Ballardini Art Institute in Faenza together with Angelo Biancini, he had among his many students the sculptor and ceramist Romano Mazzini. He acquired fame as a ceramist starting in the 1950s, when he created a large frieze for the palace in Baghdad. He participated in several editions of the Faenza Prize (which he won in 1953, 1958 and 1962), the Milan Triennale and the Rome Quadrennial, which guaranteed him considerable commercial success, sometimes considered suffocating for artistic and creative research, albeit of notable quality . After his death, the Carlo Zauli Museum was inaugurated in his hometown, and retrospective exhibitions were dedicated to him at the International Museum of Ceramics in Faenza (2002), at the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo (2008), at the Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation in Venice ( 2014) and at the Civic Museums of Ancient Art of Bologna (2015).
