An online-only exhibition
Opening February 8, 2021

Departing from the gallery’s Japanese art focus, Joan B Mirviss LTD is delighted to present the ceramic sculptures of prominent New York-based artist Jeff Shapiro in CASCADES AND GLACIAL LANDSCAPES. While living in Japan for nine years, Jeff Shapiro received training in the ancient Bizen ceramic tradition; he now creates highly independent and personal sculptural works that are uniquely his own. It took a lifetime to achieve such "abandon", as he calls it, a process of letting go of the technical training to express a Japanese aesthetic “in a voice that is not Japanese.” A selection of his recent sculptures will be available in a special online-only exhibition at Joan B Mirviss LTD this February. 

This eye-opening, bilingual book by Joan B Mirviss has over 100 illustrations including those of museum exhibitions from across the US and numerous comments by collectors and curators. This engaging volume is now available through the gallery for $49 including domestic shipping.
