Earlier in spring this year, the Michelangelo Foundation organized an exhibition, Homo Faber Event, between April 10 and May 1 in the Italian city of Venice as part of the city’s international art exhibition, Biennale Arte 2022. The 12 Stone Garden was presented as part of its programs to showcase the work of twelve Japanese Living National Treasures (individuals designated as preservers of significant intangible cultural heritage), displayed in a space arranged by designer Fukazawa Naoto. The exhibits mesmerized art fans from across the world, stirring enthusiastic responses to the world of Japan’s finest handicrafts. The exhibition Homo Faber 12 Stone Garden: Fukasawa Naoto and 12 Living National Treasures has resulted from an earnest desire to recreate its overwhelming success back in Japan and is curated by Fukasawa himself and the Museum’s director Uchida Tokugo. Masterpieces of the twelve participating craftspersons fill this specially designed space together with images created by photographer Kawauchi Rinko. Come and experience the wonder of Japanese kōgei art and craftsmanship at the MOA Museum of Art this autumn.
