| | Japanese Traditional Pottery |
 | | This exhibition includes traditional Japanese pottery and hard-fired stoneware, as well as celadon and white porcelain with their origins in China; the range of pieces on show far exceeds the scope of skills used traditionally in the past. |  | | Although the pieces are all based on traditional techniques, the differences between potters in terms of conceptual approach to their art are such that it is unusual for such a wide variety of pottery to be exhibited at the same exhibition. |  | | However, the ceremony became increasingly formalised during the two centuries of Japanese national seclusion, and the original freshness and immediacy of the art were diluted with the passage of time. |

| | Japanese pottery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Interest in the humble art of the village potter was revived in a folk movement of the 1920s by such master potters as Hamada Shoji and Kawai Kanjiro. |  | | One of Japan's oldest art forms, ceramics, that is the art of pottery, reaches back to the Neolithic period (ca. |  | | yakimono) was heavily influenced by Chinese, and Korean pottery also contributed to Japanese pottery over the ages. |

| | Japanese Sumida Pottery |
 | | Sumida Pottery was made for export to the West and is usually heavy and covered with figures in relief. |  | | The style is continued until today and I unfortunately don't know enough about this kind of pottery to suggest any specific date for your piece, or have any opinion about its authenticity. |  | | This distinct type of wares got its name from the Sumida river running near the Asakusa pottery district near Tokyo. |

| | Japanese Traditional Pottery |
 | | Perhaps a new element in the ceramic art of Japan in this century has been the introduction of the idea of pottery as an individual form of expression rather than a universal one as is usually the case with functional arts. |  | | Mass production mean that the traditional artisan-based potteries could not compete. |  | | Traditional Japanese ceramics continue to affirm the value of pottery forms based on function. |

| | THE BARNES COLLECTION OF JAPANESE FOLK ART |
 | | During his seven-year stay, he began to collect Asian art, often purchasing prints and pottery directly from the artists who were all active members of the reborn mingei movement. |  | | In 1925, Dr. Soetsu Yanagi (1889-1961) coined the term mingei (a contraction of the phrase "art by and for the people") in reaction to what he saw as the negative effect industrialization was having on traditional Japanese art. |  | | These are specific examples of work made by Yanagi's "unknown craftsmen." However, it is the variety of utilitarian pottery that takes center stage. |
