About
Glazed terra cotta abstract modern sculpture by Tomiya Matsuda. Identical form in triplicate. Outside sections function as the legs as well as body. Inside section is juxtaposed and parcel glazed with dotted center.
Tomiya Matsuda (1939-2011) studied at the Kyoto University during the late 1950s and early 1960s, the most active time for the Sodeisha group. After obtaining his graduate degree, Matsuda worked as a visiting professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in 1967 and 1968.
From the estate of William August Hoffman, a professor of ceramics at SAIC during Matsuda's time there. Hoffman acquired the work from the artist when Matsuda returned to Japan in 1968.
