Exquisite book / absolutely pristine condition. Presented to me by the Nissha technical consultant. "These enameled porcelains, chosen from the works of fourteen contemporary artists, are presented in impressive, full-color photographs. Some of the works are strikingly modern in design; others are traditional and somehow familiar. All are representations of the best of Japan's contemporary porcelain. In contrast with the popular folk-art movement of the last several decades, which emphasizes the practical uses of its pottery, these artists concentrate on aesthetics." "Each of the 137 masterpieces is illustrated in full color and accompanied by detailed captions by some of Japan's leading authorities in the field." Printing of the text and the plates by one of the finest companies in the industry. Index of artists, Foreword, Introduction, Color plates, Commentaries, Biographies.
