Curator Taketo Kobayashi said that, although Jomon is a Japanese culture, this is also a universal message of peace for all the world. This culture lasted such a long time because it was based on sharing and tolerance.
Arts of Jomon (Part 2), features video work and a site-specific mural that celebrated the ties between Japan and Colorado. The exhibition was made possible through United’s nonstop service between Tokyo and Denver. According to Curator Taketo Kobayashi, Arts of Jomon exposed visitors to a fascinating time in Japanese history. The Jomon era lasted around 10,000 years (approximately 10,500 to 300 BCE) and is considered to be one of the oldest recorded cultures in the world. A variety of contemporary artists have responded to ancient pottery and figures in a modern way. In addition, viewer were invited to observe the similarities between Native American culture, a rich aspect of Colorado’s history and Jomon culture.
