  • Gitter : Reflections of a Collector Reflections of a Collector
    168 GITTER : REFLECTIONS OF A COLLECTOR REFLECTIONS OF A COLLECTOR kurt a. gitter www.japaneseartsoc.org n July of 2016, Kurt Gitter submitted to Impressions a lengthy memoir of his decades of collecting, principally Japanese art. Our initial communications that summer evolved into a conversation that went on for the next year and a half. We thank Dr. Gitter and his wife and Icollecting partner, Alice Yelen Gitter, for granting Impressions this exclusive interview in the midst of their many other projects (figs. 1, 2a, b). As he prefaced his responses to our exchange: America, Inc. f My 2015 retirement from my fifty-year practice as an ophthalmologist- retinal eye surgeon has afforded me significant time for careful reflection on one of my greatest passions, the collecting of Japanese art. At first, I started thinking more about the facts of my background and initial exposure to Japan and its cultural traditions. Eventually, I came to see that my collecting has as much to do with the remarkable relationships I have developed with numerous individuals—dealers, collectors, scholars. It is my hope that these reflections convey my deep love of the art and culture of Japan and the privilege I feel to have pursued this passion with the help of so many. Was there a precise start to your interest in Japan? 2018 Japanese Art Society o Just after June 1963, I finished my internship at Maimonides Hospital © in Brooklyn and immediately was drafted into the U.S. Air Force.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tradition Redefined: Rosanjin and His Rivals
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tradition Redefined: Rosanjin and His Rivals ASIA WEEK NEW YORK Opening March 11, 2021 Rosanjin has long been hailed as one of the greatest ceramists of the twentieth century. His bold, eclectic ceramics emerged from the highly creative atmosphere KITAŌJI ROSANJIN (1883-1959) Camellia bowl of postwar Japan. Rosanjin forged a remarkable career, but it was not without first Glazed stoneware, ca. 1940 4 1/2 x 8 3/4 in. crossing paths, and even colliding, with many of his contemporaries who were themselves renowned ceramic masters and connoisseurs: Arakawa Toyozō, Fujiwara Kei, Kaneshige Tōyō, Katō Tokurō, Kawakita Handeishi, and Koyama Fujio. For Asia Week New York 2021, Joan B Mirviss LTD re-examines the legend of Rosanjin and his place within this Japanese artistic milieu in TRADITION REDEFINED: ROSANJIN AND HIS RIVALS. In his own words, Kitaōji Rosanjin (1883-1959) came to ceramics as a gourmand; KITAŌJI ROSANJIN (1883-1959) dissatisfied with the tableware options for presenting elegant cuisine, Rosanjin set Large Karatsu madara glazed vase Glazed stoneware, ca. 1955 about creating them himself for his exclusive eating club in Tokyo. Not wanting to 17 1/4 x 15 5/8 in. imitate past traditional forms and glazes, he instead ‘remixed’ the elements in surprising ways that were defiantly unconventional and characteristically ‘Rosanjin’. “Of all the postwar reconfigurations of the ‘taste’ of classic prototypes, Rosanjin’s seems most literally based on a desire to treat clay like food. His vessels appear tender, delicious, tempting the viewer to take a bite.” KITAŌJI ROSANJIN (1883-1959) Grey Shino teabowl with patterning Glazed stoneware, ca.

  • Catalogue of the Papers of Bernard Leach
    Catalogue of the Papers and Books of BERNARD LEACH - - - - - - COMPILED BY ALYN GILES JONES, M.A., D.A.A., F.S.A. VOLUME I 1 – 10,803 - - - - - - Crafts Study Centre Bath 1984 - 1985 F O R E W O R D This is the third and final catalogue of the papers of Bernard Leach. However, a number of his letters are in the Muriel Rose archives, also held at the Crafts Study Centre: many of these are in answer to her own letters to him listed in the three Leach catalogues. Other Bernard Leach material may yet emerge, and hopefully any such records will be deposited at the Centre. Mr David Leach made available the first “trance” of these papers, for which the Centre is deeply grateful – as, indeed, it is for the contents of Bernard Leach II, also deposited by him. The second section of this catalogue concerns the papers of the late Mrs Trudi Scott, Bernard Leach’s housekeeper, confidante and indispensable prop during his last years. I had only one telephone conversation with her ever, shortly before she died, during which she promised me an original drawing by Bernard – which I never got! Following her death, I enquired of those close to her about her papers, and can thus claim credit for having saved them. They would otherwise have been thrown away. The collection consists largely of fascinating oddments, single pages of letters, infuriating but captivating jumbles of “membra disiecta”, which have required the repeated re-cataloguing of already catalogued entries, and the constant need to review and revise and rewrite, as fragments came together during the interim and final sortings.
