Original Artworks of Jun Kaneko for Sale - Arizona - Scottsdale ID1547325

In an essay for an exhibition of Kaneko’s works at Sheldon Museum of Art, curator Daphne Deeds writes that Kaneko “employs abstraction not to transcend contemporary complexities, but to reveal the inherent synchrony of the natural world.” His work “could not be other than rhythmic, patterned and symmetrical because it is derived from his essential absorption of nature's harmony” (Rhythmic Clay, 1986). Kaneko works in reaction to the physical and temporal limitations of his material—ceramics demand patience, and harmony demands a delicate touch. Kaneko’s Dango(“dumpling”) sculptures are among his most recognized series of works: between three and eight feet in height, the sealed dango pieces must dry for up to four months before firing and glazing.
