Gallery Tour: The Carpenters’ Line
ギャラリーツアー「飛騨の匠、伝統は未来を拓く」
Transport yourself to the forests of the Hida region of Japan’s Gifu Prefecture and take a journey through 1,300 years of master carpentry with a guided tour of Japan House London’s exhibition ‘The Carpenters’ Line’ led by exhibition curator and Japan House London Programming Director Simon Wright.
During each tour, which reveals behind-the scenes insights into the exhibition curation process, guests can take a closer look at Hida’s extraordinary craftworking legacy from the rich natural resources of Hida’s forests, the tools and techniques developed to work them, to the involvement of Hida craftsmanship in furniture design around the world today.
