Akito Akagi and Hiroyuki Horihata | Book | What is Kogei?

What is the meaning of beauty?
What is the fundamental meaning of creation?

Using Taizo Kuroda's work, Zen, folk art, and Kant's philosophy as clues, Akito Akagi, a lacquer craftsman, and Hiroyuki Horihata, a clothing designer, continue the dialogue with a variety of guests to get to the core of these questions. This is a new theory of craftsmanship that chews up and renews the folk art.
