Italian craftsmanship meets Japanese artistry in ‘Bamboo 1947: Then and Now,’ a special exhibition at Gucci Ginza Gallery in Tokyo exploring the evolution of the iconic silhouette at the hands of traditional artisans and contemporary artists selected by Creative Director Sabato De Sarno.
Recreating the Bamboo 1947 bag bamboo handles and closures in ceramic, renowned ceramist Hirotsune Nakazato has used meticulous hand-building methods, while master goldsmith and Living National Treasure Morihito Katsura, alongside his apprentice Naoko Ai, have recreated them in precious metals.
