滋賀県信楽町で作陶される古谷宣幸さんの展覧会を開催いたします。古谷さんは中里隆氏に師事し、日本全国のみならず世界各地で作陶されてきました。その経験で培った豊かな表現力で、伝統を重んじながらも産地に捉われない多種多様な器を生み出します。一方で、ライフワークとして長年精力的に制作し続けている天目作品も目が離せません。妖艶な輝きを放つ古谷さんの天目はフォルムも美しく味わい深い雰囲気を醸し出します。本展では日常使いの器や天目作品を中心に出展いただきます。使いやすくシンプルでありながらも料理を引き立てる、用の美が息づく古谷さんの器をどうぞご高覧下さいませ。

We are pleased to present an exhibition of ceramics by Noriyuki Furutani, who works in Shigaraki, Shiga. He studied under Takashi Nakazato and has made ceramics not only in Japan but also in various parts of the world. With the rich expressiveness he has gained from his experience, he produces a wide variety of ceramics that are not limited to the regions where they are produced, while respecting tradition. On the other hand, we cannot take our eyes off his tenmoku works, which he has been producing energetically for many years as his life’s work. His tenmoku, with its enchanting brilliance, is beautiful in form and creates an atmosphere of deep taste.
