Food expresses the culture,
spirit, values, and artistic
sensitivity of the people of a
particular region or country. In
this exhibition we hope to
help Americans understand more
about Japanese cuisine, culture,
and craftsmanship, and to reveal
how the current crop of trend
conveys Japan's seasonal
sensibility, not only in the
foods they serve but in how they
present them — dishware, decor,
and even lighting subtly change
four times a year.
Their
seasonal expressions are seen in
meticulous choices of pottery,
lacquer ware, fabrics, washi
paper, scrolls, vases, flowers,
and so much more. The same care
is given to sourcing the finest
ingredients of each season,
which is integral to the best
Japanese cuisine. Please join
our exhibition into the views
and values expressed by those
behind Japanese cuisine. It is
through their keen insights and
beliefs that a fresh face of
Japan will emerge.
