<p>Since 1970, Mizuno's work has evolved from functional dinnerware to abstract sculptural forms, from playful and humorous  trompe l'oeil plates to richly layered sculpture informed by his evocative personal history, paralleling the development of the ceramics field itself in the late 20th century as it evolved from functional forms to a medium of full artistic expression. The exhibition is the first major museum exhibition to survey the work of  this artist whose superbly crafted works, while firmly grounded in the traditions of the ceramic arts, extend to new forms in clay that defy traditional categories.This exhibition catalogue designed by Takaaki Matsumoto includes a forward, interview with the artist, a biography and exhibition history, and the exhibition checklist of 48 artworks. The exhibition and publication trace the work of this Japanese-born, Los Angeles-based ceramist from 1971 through 2003.ISBN 0-97127772-3-0Published by the Long Beach Museum of ArtInterview of the artist by Deborah McLeod, foreword by Museum Director Harold NelsonFormat: hardcoverDimensions: 8-1/2 x 6-1/4 inches96 page plus cover / 51 color platesPublication year: 2005 in conjunction with the exhibition of the same title at the Long Beach Museum of Art November 18, 2005 through January 15, 2006.</p>
