Shared Tools

Jacob Lawrence Gallery Tools and builders are a substantial throughline in Jacob Lawrence's work, especially in his later work done while in Seattle. He celebrates the work of the people building the spaces and infrastructure of our collective future, imagines the role of the artist right alongside them, and honors the timeless tools that make this possible—chisels, hammers, hand saws, wood planers. All this has pushed us to ask, what are our tools here in the gallery? What are we building together? What new tools might further this work? Shared Tools brings together artists and organizations attempting to imagine otherwise for museums and galleries, offering up several prompts and tools for our community to consider and take on. A moment of reflection and experimentation, this exhibition will turn the gallery into a site for ongoing research into how we embody our mission. Event interval: Ongoing event. Campus location: Art Building (ART). Campus room: Jacob Lawrence Gallery. Accessibility Contact: jacoblawrencegallery@uw.edu. Event Types: Exhibits. Tuesday, October 29, 2024 – Saturday, December 21, 2024.

Film Screening: 'Carving the Divine: Buddhist Sculptors of Japan', with filmmaker Yujiro Seki

Outside the School Carving the Divine (2019, 99 min.) is a documentary film that offers a rare look into a 1400-year-old Buddhist woodcarving tradition and the practitioners struggling to preserve its legacy in a rapidly changing Japan. Master Koun Seki, the former apprentice of renowned Busshi, Kourin Saito, takes us on a trip through a guild culture unlike anything existing today in the West. From the growing pains of a novice apprentice, to the entire guild working together as one body to create breathtaking works of art, to the monkish practice of the famed, Grand Master Saito himself, alone on his quest to “leave nothing but great works behind.” Born and raised in Japan, Yujiro Seki earned a BA in Film from the University of California, Berkeley. He moved to Los Angeles to work as a director of the video department for Intermarket Design. After attaining permanent U.S. residency, he began studying full time in the Cinematography program at UCLA Extension.
