Group Show of Contemporary Artists 2016
Newly think
November 26 (Sat) – December 6 (Tue), 2016
An exhibition of group shows selected through public invitation for “Group Show of Contemporary Artists 2016”
Exhibition Introduction by the Group
In this exhibition—our fourth, a gathering of 16 craft artists—we will “newly think” crafts and try to erect a large “sign” in the venue pointing the way to the future.
Amid the age-old history of crafts, we are currently pioneering a path to the future. This path we blaze with our “thoughts” about crafts as artists who find a start to the creative process in our materials. That path, while deriving from light, depicts a map to the future and connects with the future.
Tracing that path will take you to each artist’s artwork and view of the future.
