Netsuke. Vom Sammeln, Ausstellen und drüber Schreiben - Lesung und Gespräch

In the organizer's words:

Curator Dr. Patricia Frick and actor Andreas Ladwig in conversation with Daniel Müller Hofstede about Edmund de Waal's "The Hare with Amber Eyes".

In his bestselling novel "The Hare with Amber Eyes", British ceramic artist and author Edmund de Waal tells the story of his family. At the heart of this saga is a valuable collection of almost 300 netsuke, precious miniature carvings from Japan, which he inherited from his great-uncle. Based on the book, passages of which will be read by actor Andreas Ladwig, the discussion will revolve around the fascination of East Asian arts and crafts, collecting and the art of exhibiting.
