Sogen Eguchi (1919-2018) Japanese Calligraphy Painting - Bokujinkai

Item Details

Description

A rare work by Sogen Eguchi (1919-2018), a founding member of the Bokujinkai group. An abstract mid-century composition. Circa 1955.

Painted ink on thin Japan paper, wrapped to a thin wood panel, as original. Framed (no glass).

Signed in ink on the back, in English by the artist and with Japanese calligraphic characters.(1919-2018)

PAINTING: 19 1/2 x 25 3/8" (49.5 cm x 64.5 cm)

FRAME: 20 1/2" x 26 1/2" (52 cm x 68 cm)(1919-2018)

PROVENANCE: San Francisco collection.(1919-2018)NOTES / REFERENCES: The Bokujinkai (People of the Ink) was a group formed in Kyoto, Japan in 1952 by five calligraphers, Morita Shiryu, Inoue Yuichi, Eguchi Sogen, Nakamura Bokushi, and Sekiya Yoshimichi. The avant-garde calligraphy movement they launched aspired to raise calligraphy to the same level of international prominence as abstract painting. To realize this vision, the Bokujinkai established creative collaborations with artists from the European Art Informel movement and the American Abstract Expressionists. They soon began sharing exhibition spaces with these artists at museums and galleries in New York, Paris and Tokyo.

Sogen Eguchi exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art MoMA in New York City, Japanese Calligraphy from June 22 - Sept. 19, 1954.
