Keiji Shinohara
Keiji Shinohara, Symphony (TP), Ukiyo-e woodcut print landscape, 2002

2002

About the Item

In his "Symphony (TP)," 2002, Keiji Shinohara flattens a sunset landscape to its most essential visual elements in the tradition of Japanese woodcut, while updating the medium with the use of blended color. The image has a Cubist twist as reflections in the water and sky are presented with no regard to perspective of the overall scene. A fiery mountain sunset with the artist's celebrated blended color signifies the difference between water and sky. Keiji Shinohara was born and raised in Osaka, Japan. After 10 years as an apprentice to the renowned Keiichiro Uesugi in Kyoto, he became a Master Printmaker and moved to the United States. Shinohara’s nature-based abstractions are printed on handmade kozo paper using water-based pigment onto woodblocks in the ukiyo-e style–the traditional Japanese printmaking method dating to 600 CE. Though Shinohara employs ancient methods in creating his woodblock prints, he also diverges from tradition by experimenting with ink application and different materials to add texture to his prints. He personally executes all the steps involved in the printmaking process, from carving the woodblock to printing by hand. Elegantly understated, these works are a fusion of Japanese aesthetic and Western modernism. Edition: Test Proof (TP) Exhibitions: 2015 "In Through The Outdoors: Keiji Shinohara, Alan Bray and Ray Kass," Garvey Simon, New York, NY Matted and ready to be shipped. Framing available upon request.
