Description
| Jun Nishida, who passed away in 2005 at the age of 27, was a rare ceramic artist who won many awards in Japan and abroad. Rensaku [Zetsu] is his masterpiece. The entire piece is fired for three or four days in a kiln at 1,300 degrees Celsius. The energy of the dissolving material and the magnificence of the material that cannot be fully dissolved. The energy of the dissolving material, and the magnificence of the unmelted material, are vividly expressed by smashing the jar after it is pulled out of the kiln. [For Jun Nishida, who said, "I want to create an independent existence that is possible when human creativity is added to the creativity of nature," and "My works are my alter ego," what kind of word was "Zetsu" for him? What kind of word was "zetsu" for Jun Nishida, who said, "[Insulation], [Absolute], [Zettai], and [Zero]. This is a collection of works that reexamines Jun Nishida, a ceramic artist who has gone on to explore unexplored realms. Long-awaited reissue in July 2018 Many of the works featured in this book are now in the collections of major museums and foundations around the world. After his death, a large collection of his works was acquired by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in 2013, and a collection room was opened for long-term exhibition. Jun Nishida has transcended the boundary of death and continues to show the world the power of his work. In response to the requests from all over the world for the reprinting of this book, it is now available after 12 years. |

2005年に享年27歳で逝った西田潤は､国内外で受賞暦を重ねる稀有の陶芸家だった。
連作「絶」は､その代表作。
大きな壷の内に釉薬で造形したものを入れ､それを丸ごと1300度の窯の中で三日四日と焼きしめる。溶解する物質のエネルギー､溶けきれない物質の凄み。窯から引き出した壷を叩き割ることによって､それは鮮烈に出現する。
「自然の創造性に人間の創造が加わったときにできる､独立した存在をつくりたい」と語り､「作品は僕の分身」と言った西田潤にとって､「絶」とはどんな言葉だったか。「絶縁」､「絶対」､「絶体絶命」､そして「零」。
未踏の領域を拓いて逝った陶芸家 西田潤をあらためて問い直す作品集。
2018年7月待望の復刊
本書に掲載されている作品の多くは、現在、世界の主要な美術館や財団などにコレクションされている。

死というひとつの境を超え、今もなおその力を世界へ見せつづける西田潤。
