E-Yakimono

Greetings from Mishima, It's been a decade since I started writing my Japan Times 'Ceramic Scene' column and about half of that for our web sites at www.japanesepottery.com and www.e-yakimono.net I've decided to enter the blog world to share and update information on the ever-expanding world of Japanese ceramics whenever news or interesting exhibitions appear.. Thanks much as always for your interest and let the blog journey begin! Best, Robert

Japan Ceramics Society Award Winners Exhibition


The annual Japan Ceramic Society Award-Winners exhibition will be held in Tokyo at Wako Hall, Ginza from Jan.19-28. This time the exhibition will celebrate the 60th year since the JCS's founding and will feature works by 52 ceramic artists including Shimaoka Tatsuzo, Miwa Jyusetsu, Akiyama Yo and Kakurezaki Ryuichi. Please note that Wako is closed on Sunday, for some odd reason. Look for a slide show of the exhibition on www.e-yakimono.net sometime in Feb.
