Kumi Sugai (1919-1996) - “Direction Change” (1991) – Extra-Large Original Lithograph

【Title】 Kumi Sugai – “Direction Change” (1991) – Extra-Large Original Lithograph – Hand-Signed – Edition of 100 ⸻ 【Description】 A dynamic and visually striking original lithograph by the internationally celebrated Japanese master of abstraction, Kumi Sugai (1919–1996). Created in 1991, “Direction Change” represents a powerful work from Sugai’s mature period. The composition is defined by bold geometry and intense contrast, combining vivid red and neon pink tones that evoke movement, speed, and structural tension—hallmarks of Sugai’s late abstract language. Printed on an impressive extra-large sheet (900 × 610 mm), this work reflects Sugai’s transition into his final “S” series, in which he explored the visual vocabulary of road signs, urban space, and architectural forms. Its commanding scale and graphic clarity make it an outstanding focal piece for a modern or contemporary art collection. ⸻ 【Artwork Details】 • Artist: Kumi Sugai (hand-signed in pencil) • Title: Direction Change (方向転換) • Year: 1991 • Technique: Lithograph • Edition: 34 / 100 • Size: 900 × 610 mm ⸻ 【Condition】 Very good condition. The colors remain extremely vivid with no noticeable fading. Only minor edge wear is present, consistent with the age and large sheet size. Unframed. We will use Japan Post or DHL for shipping. Please allow extra time for delivery as the items are shipped from Japan. Please note that the listed prices do not include customs duties and taxes. Please note that items may have scratches or stains due to age. If an item exceeds the size or weight limits, it may be shipped in multiple packages.
