Kako Katsumi(b.1965) is one of our favorite emerging ceramic artists who challenges his art with a keen sense and unique vision. All is works are fresh, yet recall past works such as Yayoi Period vessels or 20th century masters such as Kamoda Shoji or Wada Morihiro. In time, no doubt, Kako will be in major collections worldwide. Here is a rather large bulbous jar that recalls a meiping form; it has a soft ash glaze, burnt red connecting roundels, and a light comb brushing over the body. A neat, engaging and shibui jar; in perfect condition with a signed box, 40cm.tallx30.5, signed on base. Kako's work will be shown in Tokyo at the Art Fair Tokyo in early April; stop by our booth if in the capital.
