Walking in the large exhibition room at the Everson Museum of Art, Japanese ceramic artworks are arranged in different glass cases, hung on walls and lined along shelves. Panels on the history of Japanese ceramics art through many movements lead the audience through the “Floating Bridge” exhibition. Jason Jose, an exhibition visitor, said the atmosphere feels like walking through history. The exhibition focuses particularly on two eras of Japanese ceramics arts: the postmodern Sōdeisha movement a liberating era of Japanese ceramic art that adhered to certain traditions and the contemporary era, where artists show defiance toward tradition. The exhibition aims to showcase the transition between these two periods.
