About Jun Kaneko
Jun
Kaneko (American, born Japan 1942) studied painting in his native Japan
as a young man. In 1963, he moved to the United States where he studied
ceramics with a number of influential artists from the California
School, including Peter Voulkos and Paul Soldner. Although Kaneko is
best known for creating large-scale ceramic sculptures and
installations, painting has remained an important part of his artistic
practice throughout his career. In recent years Kaneko has also branched
out to design opera sets and costumes for several productions in Omaha,
Atlanta, Philadelphia and Vancouver.

NCECA defines an Emerging Artist to be one who
is creating work that offers new/exciting/thoughtful
perspectives that expand upon a genre of creative
production and inquiry. An Emerging Artist may be at the
early stages of receiving recognition for his/her work but
is currently underrepresented through exhibitions or
publications that might otherwise bring the work to wide
attention. The intent of the award is to recognize,
cultivate and amplify vital, new voices of creative
endeavor in ceramics. The award enables these artists to
reach broader national and international audiences and
impact discourse in the field.
