On the last day of the 芸 [Gei ]: The Beauty of Ephemeral and Eternal exhibit at Contemporary Craft, January 18, the gallery will offer a free guided tour from 11 am to 12 pm.
芸[Gei]: The Beauty of Ephemeral and Eternal invites viewers to explore the captivating duality of Japanese Sogetsu Ikebana and craft, highlighting the profound cultural connections woven through these art forms. Ikebana (生け花, living flowers), the traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement, captures the fleeting beauty of nature. Conversely, we celebrate the eternal through masterful craft objects. These objects embody enduring skill and meticulous attention to detail. From exquisite ceramics to intricate metal and wood sculptures, these crafts echo with the wisdom and patience of their makers, preserving techniques practiced over generations while celebrating individuality and collaboration. Join Contemporary Craft on a artist-led guided tour of GEI !
