Jan Kollwitz is a German ceramic artist.
In his youth Kollwitz became interested in pottery, studying it with recognized masters Horst Kerstan and Yutaka Nakamura. In 1988, the Japanese kiln builder Tatsuo Watanabe built a traditional Japanese anagama kiln in his workshop in Sismar (Ostholstein). Since then Jan Kollwitz has been firing his ceramics here, the roots of which can be found deep in Zen Buddhism and the Japanese tea ceremony.
Since 1990, Jan Kollwitz's work has been shown in numerous exhibitions. The artist's work can be found in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Museum of Asian Art in Berlin and other European museums and collections.
