Creative Residency Arita, the celebrated Japan–Netherlands residency program, marks its 10th year. To reflect and look ahead, Studio The Future and Nieuwe Instituut present an exhibition placing the Arita kilns, central to the program, firmly in the spotlight. The show takes a critical look at what a craft-based residency means, and how to move it forward. Works from Arita take center stage; works from the residency play a supporting role.
Saga's Arita is the birthplace of Japanese porcelain, and one of the first creative and indstry collaborations between the Netherlands and Japan — a legacy that still resonates today."
