One of Japan's most unique and prolific ceramic artists is Kyoto's Fujihira Shin(b.1922). He has essayed some of the most charming, intriguing, and of 'another world' ceramic pieces during his long career. He's been honored with museum retrospective exhibitions at Musee Tomo in Tokyo and Paramita in Mie museums and issue no.76(2003) of Honoho Geijutsu was devoted to him. His honors and exhibitions are too long to list here, suffice to say he is a major, eclectic ceramic artist. More about him and also past exhibition slide shows can be viewed at e-yakimono.net This is an ivory white jar-vase--24.5cm.tall--with Fujihira's hypnotic black incised patterns, stamped on back base, no box, yet one can be ordered and signed by Robert for a bit extra.
