Shindo Tsuji (1910-1981) was a Japanese artist born in Tottori Prefecture who was particularly renowned for his sculpture works. While Tsuji had utilized mediums like cement and iron for sculptures during his career, this event specifically focuses on his ceramic sculpture works. Tsuji was inspired to delve into the ceramic realm after moving to Kyoto and discovering a range of kilns around the Higashiyama area.
Around 45 pieces from Tsuji's Kyoto-era ceramic collection will be displayed at the event. Adult admission is priced at 900 yen.
