SUMMARY:SIGN UP for Shu Kubo Kirie Workshop!
DESCRIPTION:Shu Kubo Kirie Artist    (Japanese Paper Cutting)    Nashville Workshops    Tuesday, March 16th    3pm, Adult Workshop    Scarritt Bennett Center    (Front Porch Gift Shop)    Contact Kim Johnson at 615-340-7450    Wednesday, March 17th    2:30pm, Adult Workshop    The Arts Company    Contact Terry Vo at 615-340-4300    Thursday, March 18th    10am, Children's Workshop    Nashville Public Library    Contact Jena Schmid at 615-862-5786    Shu Kubo is well regarded in Japan’s contemporary art scene and his    work has appeared on postage stamps and on New Year’s greeting    cards in Japan. In 2009, he was appointed as Special Advisor for    Cultural Exchange of the Agency of Cultural Affairs by the Japanese    Government.    Kubo creates the paper cutouts using handmade Japanese washi    paper, which is dyed a variety of colors. He approaches the paper    sheet by sheet, creating a two dimensional work by precisely cutting    fine lines with a knife. Kubo has recently expanded his techniques by    combining washi with Western paper materials, resulting in quite    remarkable three-dimension works. Also, by layering multiple layers    of ultra-thin washi, an original color scheme is developed adding    texture and flair to the subject.    The themes explored in Kubo’s work are largely ‘Japonism on Paper.’    He captures the dynamics of the seasonal traditions of Japanese life    and food in a fresh and beautiful new way. His work has gained a    wide appreciation among the Japanese, especially with children. He    will be presenting workshops throughout Nashville from March 16 -    18, 2010.  The workshops can only accommodate 20 participants.    Reservations are highly recommended. This program is brought to    you in association with the Scarritt Bennett Center, The Arts    Company, The Nashville Public Library and the Consulate-General of    Japan in Nashville. If you have any further questions, contact Terry Vo    at jet@cgjnashville.org or 615-340-4300 x172.
