Information on the Hagi Yakiya online-exhibition.
From January 22nd, we will hold an exhibition of works by Mino potter Ryotaro Kato.

A grandson of former Japanese national treasure, Takuo Kato.

Born in a kiln that has continued for generations in Mino, a potter who boldly challenges the creation of traditional Shino and Seto black.

He gradually faced Momoyama pottery while using various expressions with the cray.
In this exhibition, we will introduce various works such as Oribe that has dignity and sublime, Shino that has deeply shining glaze, and Hikidashi black “Hikidashiguro” that pursues the abyss.
