Japan, Large decorative dish by Yasutaka Shimizu and original drawing

About the Item

Yasutaka Shimizu was born in 1947 in Kyoto. The son of Uichi Shimizu, a living national treasure, he was immersed from a young age in a world where art and tradition meet. After graduating in history from Ryukoku University in 1970, he decided to follow in his father's footsteps and devote himself to ceramics. In 1971, he began his apprenticeship under his father, patiently learning the techniques but also the secrets. The following year, his works were noticed and selected for the Japan Traditional Crafts Exhibition, marking the beginning of his career. Over the years, Yasutaka Shimizu has distinguished himself in many exhibitions, winning several awards that have confirmed his talent. He specializes in creating stylized turtle motifs, symbols of longevity, and each piece he creates, such as this large platter, reflects a deep respect for tradition while adding a personal, contemporary touch. In 2002, he was appointed director of the Japan Crafts Association, a role that has allowed him to continue to promote and advance the art of ceramics. His works, appreciated both in Japan and abroad, are exhibited in public and private collections. Signed piece withe original signed box and original drawing.
