Kōgei: Art Craft Japan

Ceramics
Written By Derek Au

I was lucky to have landed in Philadelphia just as "Kōgei: Art Craft Japan" opened at @philamuseum. Here are some of the beautiful surfaces from those works. I included a wonderful detail of Jun Kaneko's "Untitled Dango" that I believe is still on display at the museum.

I love looking at work and asking myself, "How did they do that?" How do you think they did it?

Selected works by:
