SUMMARY:Earthen Elegance: The Ceramic Art of Bizen
DESCRIPTION:This February\, Portland Japanese Garden is pleased to present Earthen Elegance: The Ceramic Art of Bizen in the Pavilion Gallery. On loan from the Collection of David Sneider and Naomi Pollock\, this exhibition celebrates contemporary ceramic art and vessels that preserve a time-honored collaboration of earth\, fire\, and the artist’s hand. Recognized as one of the Rokkoyō (六石窯) Six Ancient Kilns of Japan\, Bizen is a ceramic center that has continued its unique form of pottery for over 900 years. Notable for their rustic\, textured\, and unglazed forms\, the ceramics featured in Earthen Elegance reveal the depths of the Bizen pottery tradition. Today the town of Bizen hosts nearly 300 active kilns with artists continuing to use local materials and an ancient wood-firing process. Featuring work by many of Bizen’s leading potters including Jun Isezaki and Ryuichi Kakurezaki\, the exhibition presents both functional vessels and innovative sculptural forms that expand the frontier of Bizen ware.

SUMMARY:Sasquatch: Ancestral Guardians
DESCRIPTION:“We must walk lightly when we are between worlds with this sacred being.”  – Phillip Cash Cash   Indigenous peoples have long been in relationship with and shared stories about sacred forest protectors\, often called Sasquatch and Bigfoot. The works in this exhibition are made by Indigenous artists and honor generations of spiritual practices\, storytelling\, and tradition. Leave your preconceived notions behind and immerse yourself\, not in the question of if Sasquatch exists\, but rather\, how are we existing with and honoring this non-human other.
