BI-LINGUAL BOOK FEATURING WORK OF MIHARA KEN An exhibition we had last year that you might remember was that of Mihara Ken. Well, a splendid bi-lingual book has been recently published on Mihara and I'm pleased to announce that most pieces from OUR exhibition are featured in the book. As written at japanesepotterybooks.com, where the book is available:
"A beautiful picture essay book of the works of Izumo-based ceramic artist Mihara Ken. Izumo is the ancient name for a regional area in Shimane prefecture. The book shows Mihara's works in a variety of natural and indoor settings, accompanied by brief essays about the ancient folk tales and Shinto myths of the Izumo region. Brief essays include The Ceramist of Izumo, One Study of Mihara's Work, and The Path to My ceramics. All color photos of 56 works. Biography and list of works (Japanese only) conclude the book."
This book can be purchased at: http://www.japanesepotterybooks.com/store/page1.html
