Our "Yoshi Inoue – Bamboo” Vernissage will be held on Thursday, 26. May 2016 from 19:00-21:00.
The artist Yoshi Inoue will be present, visiting from Japan. At 20:00, we will have a music performance by classical saxophonist Chika Inoue.

1955, Yoshi Inoue was born in Tokyo. After graduating from Ikuei Technical College's industrial design department, he joined the design department of Panasonic. Yoshi was instrumental in the early develpoment of flat screen televisions. Upon retiring, Yoshi shifted his focus from corporate design for the mass market to more traditional crafts such as ceramics. In Yoshi's artist statement he writes, "For a long time, I was immersed in the field of industrial design, where I was involved in “monozukuri” or making things, for a multitude of users. My desire for monozukuri increased and grew to what is more accessible, monozukuri where I can leave my own imprint, and express myself as I absorbed myself into the world of pottery."

Saxophonist, Chika Inoue (井上知香) has been praised for her "beautiful tone, acute sensitivity and virtuosic technique." Native of Osaka, Japan, Chika spent most of her youth in Frankfurt, Germany and San Diego, California. Chika has performed internationally at major venues including Walt Disney Concert Hall, Kobe International Hall, Sumida Triphony Hall, as well as countless music venues across the globe. She has received numerous performance awards in competition, garnering her as a soloist and chamber musician.

FELLINI Gallery cordially invites you to experience a night of exceptional creative work.
