クライアントが社会貢献活動の一環として開催している数多くのイベントや展覧会のうち、2013年から数えて4回目となる最も人会の高い展覧会。伝統工芸の持つ重厚さと若手職人の瑞々しい感性を伝えるために、展示構成やグラフィックを根本的に見直した。ガラスや鏡を効果的に使うことで、装身具類はあたかも身に付けているように見ることができ、器類は正面だけではなく背面や底面まで、これまでに知ることのなかった作品の様々な表情や魅力を同時に伝えている。
入場無料という太っ腹なこの展覧会、前年比20%増の観覧者が訪れ、大好評のうちに終了。展示物はなんであれ、もう一度バージョンアップしてやりたい展覧会のひとつ。
The exhibition is the one of social action programs by the ITOCHU Corporation. The 4th show recorded the largest number of visitors in their history since 2013. The exhibition plan and graphic work were fundamentally renewed to express the stateliness of the traditional craftsmanship and the freshness of the young artisan. The accessories were displayed for visitors who look like wearing them. The wares were displayed to be shown its front, bottom and tale by mirrored and glassed display boxes. The exhibition expressed the different aspect and charm of work which has never known.
The exhibition was free entry generously. The much-loved show terminated with the number of visitors increased 20 % more than the year before. This is the exhibition which I would like to work again with updated plans.
