Rosanjin Kitaoji "Iga Glazed Higaki Fumikairi"

Exhibition overview

Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore, which proposes "living with art," is holding a close-up exhibition of artist Kitaoji Rosanjin. This time, we will collect more than 80 works and make proposals.

You may have heard the name of Rosanjin Kitaoji, who is famous in the world of pottery and calligraphy, somewhere. Born in Kyoto in 1883, Rosanjin is said to have come up with the idea of pursuing "beauty" based on his childhood experience of seeing the azaleas of Kamigamo Shrine in Kyoto blooming.

He is familiar with a wide range of fields, and has a strong presence not only in the field of pottery but also in the world of food and calligraphy.
Today, the types of information and the means and speed of communication have improved, and it has become possible to easily obtain all kinds of information. How many moments do you think you can feel "beauty" in your daily life? ..

Rosanjin is known as a person who pursued the existence of "beauty" in everyday life. I hope it will be an opportunity to stop and feel how we, who live in the present age, face beauty in our daily lives.

Rosanjin / 3D Online Viewing

This time, as a new initiative, "Rosanjin / 3D Online Viewing" will be held from November 4th (Wednesday). Enjoy the vivid and beautiful showroom using 4K technology with 3D online viewing of the exhibition in real space.
