About the Item
Permanescence N496-D is a unique ink and acrylic on paper diptych painting by Japanese contemporary artist Hachiro Kanno, dimensions are 65 × 100 cm (25.6 × 39.4 in).
The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Hachiro Kanno arrived in France in 1968 to complete his studies at the Paris School of Fine Arts. In 1979, he moved into the Bateau-Lavoir in Montmartre and has been there ever since. Coming from a long line of traditional calligraphers and raised in the Shinto religion, Kanno transposes timeless themes into abstract, in a more up-to-date and universal way organized around the positive and the negative.
The painter draws its resources from Japanese calligraphy and his favourite themes in Zen philosophy. Hachiro Kanno’s painting succeeds in synthesizing his Oriental heritage with western influences. Japanese calligraphy, with its expressive way of tracing each line, constitutes the basis of his approach. The artist transforms it into an abstract writing, a “writing come painting”. Hachiro Kanno uses Japanese ink, acrylic and, for the white, powdered pearl shell which gives his compositions a changing glint depending on the angle of observation. There is in his canvasses the immediately visible and then there’s the gradually revealing.

Hachiro Kanno
Coming from a family of traditional calligraphers, Hachiro Kanno explores the possibilities of calligraphy and transforms it into abstract writing, “a writing that has become a painting”. The artist has perfectly mastered the medium of ink: at times supple and voluptuous, at others taut and determined, the strokes of his brush reveal the speed or slowness of his gestures. The experience, perception, and awareness of nature and life, of becoming and passing, of movement and perpetuity — these are the concerns of the artist. “Today, when I paint I express myself differently to the way I did yesterday and to the way I will tomorrow. And yet, in me, there is an essentiality which lingers: yesterday, today, tomorrow right up to my death and even then beyond... That is what I want to convey by the notion of “permanescence”.”
