FEATURED ARTISTS
Kaori Izumi
The prices of the artworks on Gallery Japan are determined by the artists themselves and are published directly on the website.
Collaborating with Techniques of the World
Glasswork artist Kaori Izumi creates profound artwork using Japan's traditional cut glass technique and the traditional lace glass technique of Venetian glass. The delicate lace-like color glass lines overlapping in spirals and the bold cut on the outside create an artistic beauty that cannot be seen in typical cut glass pieces. The exquisite beauty of lace glass and sharpness of the cut glass are the characteristics of Izumi's artwork. She received the Grand Award, Japan Kōgei Association President Award, at the 72nd Japan Traditional Kōgei Exhibition where the artworks of the top level artists in Japan gather, and is the most talked-about glass artist at the moment.
