"The Little Garden of Jun Shirasu", Art Base 1 Gallery, Macau, reflects prints, drawings, tile panels and stone etchings produced from 1989 to 2010 by the artist.
This fascinating event pinpoints the overall achievement of the renowned Japanese artist, Jun Shirasu, accumulated over the twenty years of his artistic career. This show consists approximately 200 pieces of artworks created in either Europe or Japan, including marble-etching works, hand-painted ceramic tiles, and printmaking art in varied mediums.
As a peripatetic artist, Jun has attained his further education at the Slade School of Fine Art in England, and his first teaching experience at the Czech Republic. The art of gardening has always been the major inspiration of Jun's work: His art is indeed, a romantic representation of a cultural clash formulated by the Eastern and Western idealization of nature. This theme is also evident in his recent co-operative projects of large-scale ceramic murals in different cities such as Lisbon, Tokyo and Macao. As the largest local art exhibition by far, a huge multimedia installation-12 meters in length, would be displayed. Art enthusiasts, do not miss out!
