For centuries  Japanese potters have created remarkable ceramic vessels  usually intended for use in tea ceremonies or as tableware. In contrast  the work of Taizo Kuroda is revered not for its functionality  but for its formal purity and artistic quality. Each of Kuroda s unglazed works hints at the artists fascination with crossing the barriers of time and space to achieve what he calls  creating for infinity. Imperfect by design  his works have found admirers among such significant figures as the fashion designer Issey Miyake and the architect Tadao Ando  who respectively wrote the preface and introduction for this book. Featuring photographs that emphasize the transcendental beauty of Taizo Kurodas white porcelain  this book is a must for anyone interested in contemporary ceramics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67929305907253,"sku":"ByrdShop_379135003X","price":1733.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9783791350035.jpg?v=1794196321","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/taizo-kuroda-9783791350035","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
