Description
A stunning survey of a wide-ranging and highly personal collection of major works in glass and clay by international artists.
Craft Across Continents presents 50 objects in two-parts: the first 22 plates focus on works by Japanese makers; the second section of 21 plates on works by American and European practitioners. Marking the mid-way point of the volume is a special section, printed on a different uncoated paper, featuring large-scale, full-page images, including a portrait of the collectors and views of the glass, ceramics, bamboo and other objects as seen in the domestic setting of the collectors' private home.
The wide-ranging and highly personal collection includes masterworks of twenty-first-century Japanese wood-fired ceramics, as well as works in porcelain by Satoshi Kino and Machiko Ogawa. Moreover, an additional 20-plus objects were gifted to the Mint in 2021 including further Japanese ceramics, a fine collection of Japanese bamboo sculptures by several generations of makers--a unique feature of the Collection--as well as an indigo resist-dyed wall hanging by Rowland Ricketts, an artist and farmer based in Bloomington, Indiana, using natural dyes and historical Japanese processes to create contemporary textiles. From Europe and the United States, there are major glass sculptures, a seminal installation by Danish maker Tobias Møhl, a mobile by Polish-trained artist Anna Skibska, and fine examples of cast blown, and lamp-worked glass. One of the most spectacular large glazed ceramic vessels in the collection is by the British maker, Gareth Mason.
