The Keramikos book presents front-and-back photographic records of 300
painted pieces that artists Matthew Lutz-Kinoy and Natsuko Uchino
produced since 2010 – including plates, bowls, pitchers and oil jars.
Some objects are accompanied by narrative descriptions that present
aspects of the duo’s vast and complex research exploring notions of
society, religion, politics, style and technique through the long
history of ceramic production motifs from Hispano-Moresque, Byzantine,
Islamic and Korean ceramics. Each plate is printed on the recto side
with its reverse shown in the same position on the verso side of the
same page. An extensive index completes the book as well as an interview
with the artist and curator Nicolas Trembley.
