滋賀県の信楽で作陶される古谷宣幸さんの展覧会を開催いたします。アメリカやデンマークなど世界各地で作陶された経験を活かし、黒釉や粉引、黄釉など幅広く制作する古谷さんですが、学生時代から現在に至るまで天目作品の制作も精力的に続けてこられました。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。今回の展覧会では天目を中心に日常使いの器や茶碗、花器などを出展していただきます。どうぞご高覧下さいませ。

We are pleased to announce an exhibition by Noriyuki Furutani, a ceramic artist based in Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. He has travelled around the world to make ceramic, for example Denmark and America. Being influenced by those experiences, he produces a wide range of works including black glaze, yellow glaze and Kohiki. However, among all types of ceramic, Tenmoku is the only one that he has been producing since his college days. His Tenmoku is characterized by gloss finish and beautiful form that could always attract people’s attention. This time he will show us his Tenmoku series, and ceramic ware for daily use, such as tea bowls and vases. We are looking forward to your visit.
