Abstract Ceramic Sculptures by Makoto Yabe, c. 1980
12-16h in
Four-piece Sculptural Studio Pottery Group, Massachusetts. Curvilinear abstract forms in matte bronze-green glazes. Yabe’s work exemplifies the artistic freedom and improvisational approach that was essentially prohibited to him in Japan, where he was a classically trained ceramicist. In order to be free to experiment and explore the boundaries of his art, Yabe left for the US where he taught and worked for the rest of his life, c. 1980.
