The beauty of glass is in its capture of light, and Kaneko’s installations wow the eye with color and reflection.
Kaneko was born in Japan, and began his studies in painting. After coming to the U.S., he was drawn into sculptural ceramics. He has taught at some of the nations leading art schools, and holds honorary doctorates from several notable Universities.
He has fantastic pictures on his website. I love to see the scale of the work as shown by the photo above. See the finished pieces below.
Kaneko plays with scale and proportion, and is a pioneer in the field of monumental ceramic sculpture. His latest exhibition can be seen in Millennium Park in Chicago, IL, in the Boeing Galleries, from April through November of 2013.
