Large Japanese Abstract Painting by Teruko Hiramatsu, ca. 1960s
About the Item
A large Japanese abstract painting, ca. 1960s, by the female artist Teruko Hiramatsu. Hiramatsu studied under Kazuo Sakata, who had immersed himself in the art of prewar Paris and was an assistant to Fernand Leger. Sakata is today recognized as a pioneer of modern abstract painting in mid century Japan. His career evolved from cubism to a particular style of Shinto influenced orientalist expressionism which Hiramatsu was a leading proponent of. When Sakata founded the seminal Avant-Garde-Okayama (A-G-O) group of postwar painters in 1949 and organized 4 groundbreaking exhibitions, Hiramatsu participated in all of them. Before his death in 1956 he declared her his “one true student succeeding his spirit unlike any other.”
In 1964 Hiramatsu visited the United States to exhibit on both the East and West coasts and this work is likely from between that period and 1970. In New York she also shared studio space with Willem De Kooning.
This canvas is typical of her abstract style, utilizing Japanese dyed paper and thinned paints. The work is fluid, and may be hung either vertically, as the placement of her signature on the reverse suggests, but it also displays quite well as representing a mountainous seaside landscape when hung horizontally.
