物品描述

佐久間藤也 Sakuma Fujiya（1963–）
益子焼 Mashiko-yaki 角瓶 Square Vase with 黒釉 Black Glaze and 柿流 Flowing Amber Brushwork — Sakuma Fujiya

这件罕见的大型作品扎根于民艺（日本民间工艺）传统——正是佐久间藤也的祖父与 Living National Treasure Hamada Shoji 共同奠定的这一运动。

这件威严的方形花瓶（角瓶，kaku-bin）是佐久間藤也的代表作，他是位于栃木县益子的传奇窑—佐久間藤太郎窑的第4代掌门。以益子民艺陶瓷的活态传统为烧造背景，这件作品覆以深邃的镜面黑釉（黒釉 kuro-yu），其上再施以熔融的琥珀棕色与淡灰色釉，经铲刀（hera-nagashi）自由流淌——这技法让人联想到 cascading 山泉瀑布或变幻的烟雾。白釉的扁平矩形颈部与深色躯体形成鲜明对比，宽阔而略收的方形轮廓赋予作品非凡的视觉厚度与气场。花瓶的每一面都呈现出流动釉面的略微不同的表情，使其从每个角度皆为一件艺术品。重量约2430克，是一件具有重要工作室级重量感的作品。

该件直接从艺术家处购得，并附有佐久间藤也亲笔致谢信——这是对其来历罕见且个人化的见证。

Artist Profile
佐久間藤也 Sakuma Fujiya（1963–）is the 4th-generation master of the Sakuma Fujitaro Kiln, one of Mashiko's most historically significant kilns. His grandfather, Sakuma Fujitaro (1900–1976), was the closest collaborator of Living National Treasure Hamada Shoji, and together they laid the foundation for Mashiko as a centre of mingei (folk-craft) ceramics. Fujiya graduated from Nagoya University of the Arts in 1985 and joined the family kiln in 1986. He has won numerous prizes at the prestigious Kokuten (National Exhibition), including the Encouragement Prize (2002), the New Artist Prize (2003), and the highest honour, the Kokuga Prize (2005), upon which he was elevated to Associate Member of the Kokugakai. In 2006 he received commendation from the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry for his contribution to traditional craft industries. His works were acquired by the Mashiko Ceramic Art Museum in 2007 and by Nikko Toshogu Shrine in 2016. He currently serves as Chairman of the Mashiko Pottery Cooperative.
