It was founded in 1927 by the first headmaster, Sofu Teshigahara. It is characterized by a free and avant-garde style. Sogetsu uses the term "Ikebana," and the headquarters does not use the term "Kado" (flower arrangement), but in schools, workplaces, and organizations where Sogetsu instructors are dispatched to teach, the name "Kado Club" may be used. Generally, Kado is associated with traditional Japanese cultural practices such as the tea ceremony. The Sogetsu headquarters has a design department attached to it, offering courses in composition, drawing & sketching, sculpture, ceramics, and photography. Regarding ceramics, the Sogetsu Pottery Studio in Fukui Prefecture, as well as the headquarters in Akasaka, Tokyo, owns a kiln for firing pottery and also has iron welding facilities for making iron vases. Sofu Teshigahara was a Japanese artist. He founded the Sogetsu School in 1927. He was the father of Kasumi Teshigahara and Hiroshi Teshigahara, and the grandfather of Akane Teshigahara. "Sogetsu" is derived from the Teshigahara family crest, "Three crescents in bamboo grass." He denied the important forms in the existing world of Kado and advocated free Ikebana, which led to him being considered an outsider. However, in 1957, Michel Tapié, a critic of avant-garde art who came to Japan from France, praised Sofu's works and introduced them to the world, leading to recognition in Japan. In 1959, he was invited to Salvador Dalí's home, who was impressed by his solo exhibition in Barcelona, where he created a driftwood object and chatted with Dalí, who had a gentle expression. #Books on Plants #Art Books #Ikebana #Solty Bookstore #Sogetsu School #Orange Bookshelf #Kado
