Since early years in his career, Takahashi Yoshihiko (b. 1958) has been active at the forefront of studio glass. Each of his works has come as an eye-opening surprise to us. Giving an impression as if he is checking the texture of hot melted glass, his skill and expressivity in free blowing is particularly acclaimed in Japan and abroad. Presenting about 50 pieces dating from the 1980s until his latest work, this show will let you enjoy dynamism of glass brought out by Takahashi’s action on the material.
