Featuring some 100 works by close to 60 artists, Fired Earth, Woven Bamboo showcases the range of creative approaches in Japanese ceramics and bamboo art beginning in the postwar period and focusing on the past three decades. Some artists choose to break out of the bounds of vessel shapes to create wildly sculptural forms, whereas others choose to pursue individual expression through more nuanced approaches. All engage in dialogue with their materials as well as with traditional forms, functions, and techniques. The works that spring from their hands--delicate or monumental, humorous or spiritual, rustic or sophisticated--testify to the vitality of the contemporary crafts movement and to the marvelous variety of artistic achievement it has fostered. Enhanced with historical and biographical essays by a leading expert on Japanese crafts, Fired Earth, Woven Bamboo provides a fascinating tour of contemporary ceramic and bamboo arts in Japan as well as an introduction to the riches of the Mary Ann and Stanley Snider Collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston"--Page 2 of cover. 650 0 $a Decorative arts $z Japan $x History $y 1868- $v Exhibitions. $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Bamboo sculpture, Japanese $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Bamboo sculpture, Japanese $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Bamboo baskets $z Japan. 650 0 $a Basketwork $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Pottery, Japanese $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art $x Private collections $z United States $v Exhibitions. 700 1 $a Rogers, Malcolm, $e writer of added commentary. 700 1 $a Snider, Stanley, $e writer of added commentary. 700 1 $a Snider, Mary Ann, $e writer of added commentary. 700 1 $a Morse, Anne Nishimura, $e author. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240403011310.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213014032.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6019D060BEE311E3B118CA8BDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
