About Artist:"Kaoru Kawano (河野薫, 1926-1989) was a Japanese printmaker who worked during the Showa period and is known for his contributions to the Sōsaku-hanga movement, a modernist approach to woodblock printmaking that emphasized the artist’s individual creativity and technique. Kawano was born in Hokkaido, Japan, in 1916 and began studying art at an early age. He initially focused on oil painting but later turned to woodblock printmaking. Kawano’s work is characterized by his use of bold, bright colors and simple, stylized forms. He often depicted traditional Japanese subjects, such as geisha, kabuki actors, and landscapes, but gave them a modern twist. His prints have a distinctive, graphic quality that sets them apart from the more detailed and intricate prints of earlier periods. Kawano was a prolific artist and produced hundreds of prints over the course of his career. He exhibited his work in Japan and also gained international recognition. His prints were particularly popular in the United States, where they were well received by collectors and critics. Despite his success, Kawano was known for his modesty and lived a simple life. He continued to produce prints until his death in 1965, at the age of 49. His legacy as one of the leading artists of the Sōsaku-hanga movement continues to influence contemporary Japanese art and printmaking." About Sōsaku-hanga:Sōsaku-hanga (creative prints) was an art movement in early 20th-century Japan. It stressed the artist as the sole creator motivated by a desire for self-expression, and advocated principles of art that is self-drawn, self-carved and self-printed. The movement gained popularity following World War II, earning international acclaim and expanding subject matter to include abstraction.
