International Society (CJIS) has been organizing this exhibition annually since 1986 and, with some of the
original founding artists still participating, have established a strong tradition of displaying a wide range of
works by foreign artists living in the Chubu Region for local citizens to enjoy. This year, having reached FAE 30
we are determined to go all out for an even better show. To this end we extend a warm welcome to any and all
foreign artists in the region to apply for participation (No need to apply if you've already taken part in earlier
FAEs, you'll be contacted automatically). If you paint, draw, print, sculpt, pot, or shoot (photos!), or do any other
fine artwork, including computer graphics, why not take the opportunity to show others what you can do.
Application forms and detailed guidelines are available from the FAE website at www.nic-nagoya.or.jp/fae; or

beauty of Venice from throughout the last 500 years features around 130 works from the collection of the
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, from artists ranging from Titian, Tintoretto, and Veronese, the three great
Venetian masters of the 16th century Renaissance; to 19th century Impressionists such as Boudin and Monet

Goro Suzuki, Oribe Ware Chair, 1995
Ceramic, 53.0 x 50.0 x 127.5cm
Collection of the Menard Art Museum
"Do what others don't." So says ceramic artist Goro Suzuki, creator of unconventional, ingenious works. Emerging
as a young pottery maker at age 16, Suzuki encountered pottery as art when visiting America at age 28. Thus, while
acquiring the craftsman's technique, he came to cultivate the Goro style, creating works with a sense of freedom.
Later, while pursuing the craft of Momoyama pottery, rather than mere imitation, he has continued to develop
highly original techniques. He has also pushed boundaries, creating pieces such as enormous plates and urns.
Through his works one can see the strong determination and solid technique of an artist with a thorough understanding of his material, and Suzuki's sense of fun as he enjoys working with his clay. This exhibition features a
number of Suzuki's diverse ceramic works, including an ambitious new piece.
