In this exhibition, we are presenting wood-fired ceramics by three Japanese ceramicists on the upper floor of our gallery.

All three artists are rooted in their respective regional ceramic traditions and carry these forward in a contemporary manner. Ceramics created through wood firing are characterised by a raw, unpolished quality. Their colouration and the natural ash-infused glazes are formed directly in the kiln during the firing process.

Artists: Takashi Tanimoto, Yasuhisa Kohyama, Shozo Michikawa

Opening Hours: Tue–Fri 11:00 – 13:00 and 14:00 – 18:00, Sat 10:00 – 14:00

An initiative of the Heussenstamm Foundation.
