Duane Reed Gallery: Friday, 17 May 2013

Duane Reed Gallery presents the latest work of Jun Kaneko. Exhibition opens Friday, May 17th with a reception that evening 5 – 8pm. The exhibition will run through June 22nd.

Jun Kaneko, born in Nagoya, Japan in 1942, has continually experimented with the traditional bounds of the ceramic medium to elevate ceramics to the mainstream of contemprary art. Jun Kaneko’s most recognized sculptural form is the boldly glazed, monumental “Dango,” (Japanese for “rounded form,” or “dumpling”). His enormous dango forms, rounded monoliths which range as high as eleven feet, challenge the physical limitations of the material and the firing process.



Gallery hours: Tuesday through Saturday 10-5pm.
