Professor Yasuki Hiramatsu 28 March - 26 April 2014
Visit the gallery this week for the last few days of our current exhibition!
Professor Yasuki Hiramatsu (1926 - 2012) was one of the great pioneers of modern Japanese jewellery, creating works of outstanding beauty and grace. The methods he employed where often delightfully simple work beaten with a hammer, folded by hand and roughened with stone; turning cold, hard sheets of metal into soft ribbons, playful crumpled up balls and enigmatic forms. His life’s work was a celebration of gold, its richness, strength and inherent beauty. This exhibition features exquisite bangles, neckpieces, brooches and rings made in the last 10 years of his career.
