福井県鯖江市の塗師、中野知昭さんによる漆器展を開催いたします。中野さんは、父から受け継いだ伝統工芸「越前漆器」の技術を礎に、下地から上塗りまで一貫して手がける制作スタイルを貫かれています。卓越した技術とリズミカルで手早い作業が生む確かな仕上がりは、手にしたときに感じられる艶や滑らかさ、使い心地の良さに表れ、しっとりとした光沢の中に柔らかな表情を宿します。本展では、新作の「四ツ椀」をはじめ、定番の椀や皿、盆に加え、お正月や特別な日にお使いいただける重箱まで、多彩な漆器をご覧いただけます。日常の食卓に寄り添い、使い込むほどに深みと趣を増す一生ものの器たち。手に取り、実際に触れて、日々の暮らしの中で育てていく楽しみを感じていただければ幸いです。

We are pleased to present an exhibition of lacquerware by Tomoaki Nakano, a master craftsman from Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture. Building on the traditional craft of Echizen lacquerware passed down from his father, Mr. Nakano oversees every stage of production himself, from undercoating to finishing. His exceptional skill and rhythmic, precise technique are evident in the smoothness, subtle luster, and refined tactile quality of each piece, giving them a gentle, elegant presence. This exhibition features his new work, the “Yotsu-wan” (set of four bowls), along with his classic bowls, plates, trays, and celebratory items such as tiered boxes for special occasions. These lacquerware pieces, designed to accompany daily life, deepen in character and beauty with use. We invite you to experience them firsthand, and to enjoy the pleasure of living with objects that grow richer over time.
