Exhibited
Takashimaya Department Store Kyoto, solo exhibition, 1984
A prominent and now a senior figure in the world of Kyoto lacquer, Hattori Shunshō (his current art name) specializes in bold shell inlay, a medium pioneered by Kuroda Tatsuaki (1904–1982), combined with decoration in the maki-e (“sprinkled picture”) technique. Born in 1943, since 1963 Hattori has exhibited frequently at the Nitten national exhibition, winning many prizes. In 1975 he was selected by the Bunkachō (Agency for Cultural Affairs) to undertake a tour of Europe and the United States, studying etching in Sweden, working in Paris with the British artist S.W.Hayter, and attending workshops in New York. In 1995 he was granted an audience by His Holiness Pope John Paul II, to whom he presented a lacquered lectern. He has exhibited in the Netherlands, New York, and South Korea, and in 2005 was commissioned to create furniture for the Imperial Guest House in Kyoto. -
