Fukami Sueharu Feature Article and Koie...

The wonderful ceramic magazine CERAMIC ART and PERCEPTION has as its feature article, and cover photo, the world of the Fukami Sueharu. Fukami is an artist I have the utmost respect and admiration for and he has brought a new world of beauty to ceramic lovers the world over; he truly is a treasure.

I was in Gifu yesterday selecting Koie Ryoji pieces for our upcoming exhibition--online for public viewing April 10--and should have all photography done by tomorrow evening; stay tuned for some angama-fired yakishime Tokoname pots rarely seen.....along with Oribe and hikidashi-guro chawan. The front of Koie's gas kiln has this 'kiln beast' figure baked onto the front the sent shivers down my spine.....curled my hair some too!
