Kazumi Sakata "Kazumi Sakata's Eye Fabric for Look"
Friday, July 24, 2026
Kazumi Sakata, the late owner of Antiques Sakata (1945-2022), is recognised as one of the innovators in Japanese culture, alongside figures such as Rikyū and Yanagi Sōetsu, not just within the Japanese antique community but in the world of art and crafts. The aesthetic of ‘antique objects’ that he pioneered continues to flourish across generations and regions. The ’Sakata Room,’ operated by the Kogei Seika, aims to be the space where visitors can engage with and experience his aesthetic and philosophy—that ‘the most ordinary things’ can be beautiful. Visitors can appreciate his aesthetics through the display and public exhibition of carefully selected objects he left behind.
