| Introduction Introduction |
This exhibition was made possible by inviting individuals who are diligently and sincerely dedicated to creating their works, with the aim of creating a new wave of tradition for KUTANI. I sincerely hope that the artists exhibiting their work will continue to dedicate themselves to their craft for a long time, and that I will be able to see their works evolve and refine as they accumulate technical skills and techniques. I know you are very busy at this time, but I would be grateful if you could take a look and offer your support. Buzan Fukushima |
