Kazufumi Hara was born in 1959 in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. He graduated from the Metal Course of the Department of Industrial, Interior and Craft Design at Musashino Art University in 1982.
Because his paternal and maternal relatives worked as blacksmiths, Hara feels that he was destined to become a formative artist who works with metal. He creates metal sculptures, which are often described as craft-like. He believes this is because the Japanese concept of art was formed after the Meiji Restoration (late 19th century) and was based on emulating Europe. Did art not exist before the Meiji period?
As seen from the establishment of separate departments of oil painting and Japanese painting, Japanese art, originally meaning Japanese painting, is a blend of both Japanese painting and oil (or European) painting. Fortunately, sculpture was not divided into Japanese and European sculpture. Therefore, formative art which was originally grouped in Japanese sculpture was placed below the attribute of fine art in the name of “kougei.* ”
Hara is interested in the Japanese aesthetics of formative art. He continues to pursue his study and creation of what matches his idea of aesthetics.

＊ The Japanese word “kougei” is usually translated as “craft” or “craftwork,” but there is a difference in meaning. With an ambiguous distinction from art, kougei refers to a wide range of objects which include handmade objects intended for visual appreciation to simple folkcraft.
