鈴木 秀昭
陶芸家。米国の大学で修得した前衛的な感覚が独特の世界を構築してる。細密画のような紋様、静と動が融合したトランス的色彩が特徴的。その作品群は国内外で高い評価を受ける。アートとしての陶芸がテーマ。
米国の大学卒業後、彫刻家だった兄の勧めで陶芸家に。’91年から九谷焼を学んだあと、前衛的な陶芸に興味を持ち、再び米国の芸術大学大学院へ。アートとしての陶芸を学ぶ。その後、世界を舞台に作品作りに没頭、数々の賞を受賞してアーティストとしての地位を確立した。「文様」という装飾性を自らの新しい視点でとらえ、挑戦的に作陶し続ける作家。
Ceramic artist. An avant-garde sense acquired at an American university creates Suzuki’s unique world. Patterns like miniatures and mesmerizing colors that fuse stillness and motion are his characteristics. His works are well-received in both Japan and abroad. His theme is ceramics as art.
Upon graduating from an American university, Suzuki’s brother recommended him to become a ceramic artist. He studied Kutani ware from 1991 but became interested in avant-garde ceramics and returned to the US to attend a graduate school of arts. He studied ceramics as a form of art. After graduating, he devoted himself to creating works with the world as his stage and received numerous awards, establishing his position as an artist; an artist who continues to create works with a unique viewpoint of “patterns”.
