    Contemporary Japanese Ceramics from the Collection of Gordon Brodfuehrer
    This exhibition explores the evolution of contemporary Japanese ceramics through the work of many artists and a variety of forms, from tea bowls and noodle cups to stunning vases and robust platters. Strong and sculptural, these ceramic pieces also reveal an earthy beauty through abstract forms, soft colors and pools of glaze. These organic objects come from kilns throughout the regions of Japan, and their clear connection to nature will be enhanced with large scale photographs of Japanese landscapes and natural elements.

    Some of the best narratives on Japanese pottery I have heard. Definitely saving this video to my Japanese Mengei and crafts pinboard. I will want to watch this many many times. My only "direct" contact with Japanese arts was with potter Hamada and calligrapher Kojo Sakamoto (he studied under Tessai)
    Loved this so much. So many beautiful pots.
    Thank you 💖

    The post is made so much more enjoyable, beyond the beauty of the individual pieces, by the narrator's passion for his collection.

    After decades collecting American Art Pottery (Craftsman Era), I have developed a strong interest in Japanese ceramics. The philosophy of finding beauty in the imperfect, finding inspiration in nature, the interaction of clay and glaze, the beauty of wood fired ash surfaces, arouse my love of their beauty. I have found potters in California, one who was from Japan and studied finance before renouncing it to follow a calling to ceramics, and his American wife who spent six years as an apprentice in Japan. I'm beginning to branch out further and these videos serve as a place to learn about the important movements and potters of Japan.

    Gordon, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful collection! I saw it recently at the Japan House in Hollywood, and the exhibit was so skillfully put together, with the exquisite photography that captured the spirit of the ceramics, and the sparse information about the various regions in which the art was produced. I spent time looking at each piece, traveling in one direction through the exhibit, and to my surprise when I had made the circuit of the space, I had to return in the other direction as the art appeared different from another direction. Such a pleasure!

    It was an enlightenment to me. My journey through Japanese ceramics goes through tea ware. And it started with a tea bowl by Keichiiro Sho. Do you know anything about this potter? I love this piece, it is really well shaped, Balanced Hagi with snow White glaze. Thank you for your video

    This art is great. It reminds me of an artist I found on etsy who hand builds japanese style pottery like raku and kintsugi: www.etsy.com/shop/TheVillagePotter

  • @leandrocrociani5828
    @leandrocrociani5828 Před 10 měsíci +1

    I think that not only the pottery is important but also the name of the artist. The name has to be spelled correctly, else it would be dishonoring. So please if you could change 'Ken MATZUSAKI' to Ken MATSUZAKI, not only that would be a honor to the artist but also improve the quality of your video. Great collection. Kind regards.

    You mentioned that this style of pottery goes back 7000 years, I was under the impression that human history can only be traced back 4000-5000 years, so may I suggest that your information be called Bullshito.

    • @crittercosner2877

      Rod Laceyiitoo bulshito eatitoo mastrito. Human history is dated back and fairly explored at certain sites of large settlements for more then 40 000 years.. And the Jomon period (including making bodies of clay and firing them) in japan is about 10 000 bce making it some 12 000 years now. I suggest you read something written on papyrus sir, it envigours the mind and spirit! :) cheers

    • @rodlacey560
      @rodlacey560 Před 6 lety

      Do you understand the term prehistoric, it started about 6 thousand yrs ago, everything before then is unprovable and hence, bullshito, you may think otherwise but you have no proof .
