Then, a small group of artists, based at what is now the Kyoto City University of Fine Arts, freed Japanese ceramics from the bounds of tradition. The Sodeisha group created ceramic objects as non-functional art for the first time in Japanese history. Tomiya Matsuda (1939-2011) studied at the Kyoto University during the late 1950s and early 1960s, the most active time for the Sodeisha group. After obtaining his graduate degree, Matsuda worked as a visiting professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in 1967 and 1968. Earthen pottery vase with horizontal stripes and circle detail. Round raised top lip opening. From the estate of William August Hoffman, a professor of ceramics at SAIC during Matsuda's time there. Hoffman acquired the work from the artist when Matsuda returned to Japan in 1968. See less
