A JAPANESE AESTHETIC: Keith Clouton & Jim Deas ceramic collection, A Gift to Newcastle
This focus exhibition presents recent and proposed gifts from collectors Keith Clouton and Jim Deas whose philanthropic connections to Newcastle Art Gallery have been longstanding. Their enthusiasm and advocacy for Japanese ceramics, as well as the quality of the Clouton and Deas collection, inspired previous Gallery Director, David Thomas to create Newcastle’s Nagano collection in 1972, initiating the Gallery’s ongoing collecting of Japanese ceramics.
This exhibition is timely as a continuum of both the generosity of benefactors to the collection and the exhibiting of Japanese ceramics at this Gallery
