SU Art Galleries Presents 'Current Traditions: Contemporary Japanese Wood Sculpture' Exhibit September 5-October 14
SALISBURY, MD---Wood carving has been a Japanese tradition since the sixth century.
久久国产精品久久 showcases 20 artists who are carrying on that heritage today during the exhibit “Current Traditions: Contemporary Japanese Wood Sculpture” September 5-October 14 in the University Gallery of Fulton Hall.
Curated by Bill Wolff of SU’s Art Department, the exhibit coincides with a residency by visiting artists Chise Iura and Natsuko Kubo, whose works are included, from October 2-13.
