DUTKO GALLERY
ENCOUNTERS JAPANESE WORKS OF ART I DUTKO GALLERY London
June 22, 2016 – August 05, 2016
This summer Dutko Gallery will present Encounters, a vibrant panorama of Japanese art and decorative arts from the 1930s to today.
For several centuries Japan has influenced the west, creating an important cultural bridge between East and West. Exploring this artistic exchange and the influences brought to Europe and beyond, this exhibition brings together exquisite examples of Japanese artistry and craftsmanship. As one of only a dozen others to use the ancient Uteki Tenmoku ‘drop of oil’ technique, master ceramicist Haruhiko Kaneko creates a rare luster and glaze in his elaborate sea inspired bowl and vase designs.
