Gashu Fukami (深水賀秀) (1953) - After the Rain

【Description】
Et enestående og vakkert bevart originalt japansk tresnitt/woodblock-trykk med tittelen «After the Rain» (雨あがり) av den anerkjente samtidsprintmakeren Gashu Fukami (1953–2023).

Fukami studerte tradisjonell tresnitt-teknikk i den historiske kunstbyen Kyoto før han flyttet til USA for å videreutvikle sin kunstneriske visjon ved et prestisjetreffet kunstinstitutt i Boston. Denne internasjonale bakgrunnen tillot ham å mesterlig kombinere klassisk japansk tresnitt-presisjon med en moderne, fargerik og svært uttrykksfull pop-art-/samtidsfølelse.

Dette særlige verket byr på et leikent og sjarmerende portrett av en jente som holder paraply under drivende skyer, fanget med tydelige linjer og en herlig mid-century modern estetikk. Det representerer perfekt den unike appell av moderne japansk grafikk.

Crucially for collectors, this is a highly desirable limited edition of only 100 prints worldwide, featuring the artist's original pencil signature and hand-written title on the lower margin. It offers a fantastic acquisition opportunity for any serious collector of Japanese contemporary prints (Sosaku-hanga) and modern illustrations.
