Works by almost all contributing artists have already been part of exhibitions at the Museum of Lacquer Art. Works by other artists have been acquired for the museum's collection over the years. The enormous diversity of contemporary lacquer art from Japan, China, Korea, Southeast Asia, Russia, and Europe is reflected in this exhibition, offering a glimpse into the present and possible future of this craft. In addition to traditionally inspired works, design objects and experimental installations are showcased. Innovative, modern, playful, clearly structured, classic.
