Collection: Nomura Seiroku

This fall, we have another exhibition coexisting with our ‘Modern Masters’, on Nomura Seiroku, a prolific painter of the 20th century. He was a master of the Tsuketa technique and Nihonga style, and he transformed these traditional techniques with a fresh, modern take.

His work is dynamic and full of passion, and his work carries a unique sense of ‘time’: some feel hurried, made frantically and explosively, while others feel slow, quiet, and almost melancholy in their meticulous brushstrokes. The exhibition will feature works from throughout his career, in both frantic coloration as well as sumi-e ink paintings from later in his life in both hanging scroll and framed formats. 

We heavily encourage you to stop by the gallery if you can– seeing his work in person is truly a remarkable experience.
