A propos de cet article

[Japan c.1960]. Ten sheets, on deckle-edge hand-made Washi paper, 10 polychrome stencil "Katazome" prints, very clean, 33.5 x 40.5 cm., complete suite, printed in a small edition. FIRST & ONLY LIMITED EDITION OF [200] COPIES R A R E ! . . *** **** *** . . . CREATED BY A "LIVING NATIONAL TREASURE" . , * Keisuke Serizawa [1895-1984] was named a Living National Treasure in 1956 by the Japanese Emperor. A leader in modern folk art, his technique known as "Katazome," or stencil dyeing was a pioneer effort. Born in Shizuoka in 1895, he has been the leading exponent for stencil dyeing ["Katazome"] on cloth and paper. He applied his technique to hand-made Japanese Washi paper and was an active illustrator of books. He used paper cut-out patterns then applied colors to the stencils. His works are highly coveted by museums & collectors throughout the world. . Serizawa was the leading exponent for the Sosaku movement [Creative Art Movement] along with his close friends: Yanagi Soetsu, Hamada Shoji and Bernard Leach among others. His works have been hailed as the most typical & charming folk-arts from Japan. . * This suite shows Serizawa's great interest and support of the hand-made papermakers and their villages of Northern Japan. The hand process of paper making is done in the winter, when the plants are dormant and the fibers are easily removed. This process requires the makers to immerse their hands in the freezing cold clear river water to separate the fibers and to perform the other hand processes involving freezing cold water, which had inhibited young would-followers of this folk-art from continuing. Few makers are found today using the old and most traditional time-honored methods. . * This suite then shows the whole process of hand-made Washi paper from beginning to end in a tribute to the Ogawa village paper-maker's stamina and stubborn attitude to stick with the old ways. Papermaking by hand is now a dying art in Japan, hand-made paper makers are now few and ever dwindling. This is a graphic record of the process and a superb and fine example of Serizawa's unique "Kataezome" technique and printing process on that hand-made Washi paper. This Washi paper is of an unusual large, Deluxe broadside size and was likely made especially for Serizawa to do this series and is 33 x 40.5 cm., except for the last example which is on stiff handmade-paper which is 33 x 38 cm. printed in Aizuri or with indigo-blue ink. Suites or even single prints of Serizawa's work are now exceptionally rare & seldom found on the market for sale. The charm of his illustrations are legendary, with delicate and subtle colors. . * BIBLIOGRAPHY: Fine Arts Gallery of San Diego: MINGEI FOLK ARTS OF JAPAN, p.[10-11] for a photos and essay about him. . * Six prints from this series are cited & illustrated in the SHIZUOKA MUNICIPAL SERIZAWA KEISUKE MUSEUM OF ART, as item 9 on pages 16-17. . * Bunsho Jugaku: NIHON NO KAMI: HANDMADE PAPERS OF JAPAN It is noteworthy to say, that Serizawa worked with Jugaku and even illustrated his book about Washi Japanese handmade papers with his lovely series of papermaking images. . * Martha Longenecker in concert with the Mingei International Museum, La Jolla, 1979: SERIZAWA, an exhibition catalogue from June 23-October 14, 1979, for additional biographical notes and illustrated color examples of his work. . *.…
