Japan’s ceramic tradition is both ancient and revered, with several thousand potters making a living from their craft at present. This exhibition examines how utilitarian objects are evolving to suit modern lifestyles. We will explore how, from the late 1940s onward, groups of artists left utility behind and adopted sculpture as direct personal expression to promote the public perception of ceramics as high art.
