KUNIAKI KUROKI The Rimpa and Hiroshige

Produced over the last twenty years, these draw upon the unchallenged
masterpieces of Japanese art. Kurioki sets out to interpret rather than replicate the
art of former ages. Using his mastery of all the various techniques of
glass-making, he captures the essence of these works in new forms in a
new medium.
The exhibition has been organised by the Fondazione Musei Civici di
Venezia in collaboration with the Soprintendenza Speciale per il Polo
Museale Veneziano and the Kuniaki Kuroki Assoication, with the
patronage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Japanese Embassy in
Italy, the Japanese Consulate in Milan, the Prefecture of Myazaki, the
Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Italy, the Rome Japanese
Cultural Institute, the Fondazione Italia-Giappone, the Regional
Government of the Veneto and the Provincial Government of Venice. It
was made possible by collaboration with R&M Japan Co. and Made in
Italy.it, with the support of H.I.S. Highest International Standards,
KWE Kintetsu Italia and Savino del Bene.
