(taille reelle)
Sakakibara Shiho (1887-1971) is a Japanese painter who greatly loved flowers and birds, and produced many flower and bird paintings throughout his life. In his mind, he pursued a strict attitude toward producing works. This is for the commemoration of the 125th anniversary of Shiho's birth.
He was born in Kyoto, and mainly studied under Takeuchi Seiho at the Kyoto City Specialist School of Painting (Kyoto City Kaiga Sen-mon Gakko). He excelled by not only valuing traditional skills, but also studying Western realism and the decorative style of the Rinpa School.
It is notable that he established Kokuga Sosaku Kyokai, the Association for the Creation of New Japanese-style Painting, with Tsuchida Bakusen and Murakami Kagaku, in 1918. Leaving Bunten, Shiho released a series of fresh, ambitious works for Kokuten, a stage that allowed painters to express and release various works in a more free painting style. In 1928, after the dissolution of the association, he withdrew from the art world and developed his own world of suiboku-ga, pursuing his fascination of sumi ink with no color.
In the attached exhibition hall, we will display works by Bakusen and other painters who flourished along with Shiho. In the main Exhibition Room, we will display about 40 masterpieces from his early days to later life. We hope you enjoy each painter’s unique style.
