About the Item

Strong vertical and horizontal elements woven into a repeating pattern, Naohiko Inukai's painting Four & Six, No. 1 offers a calming rhythmic symmetry. As was noted the the March 1968 review of Inukai's in Arts Magazine, his "vertical bars of intense color, with appropriate modifications at the intersections, jump against the faint pink, yellow, lavender or blue-grey shades of the horizontal stripes. This juxtaposition of strong against pale color emphasizes verticality in canvases that are otherwise wider than they are high." The painting measures 30" x 36" and has a stick frame hand-made by the artist. The work is signed, titled and dated "Naohiko Inukai / Four & Six, No. 1, 1967" verso. It is inscribed verso "To Matt at Hanover Summer 1969". Provenance: Dartmouth College (label verso) Gift from artist to Matt Wysocki, 1969 (inscription verso) Estate of Matthew Wysocki (1920-1991), artist and chairman of Dartmouth College's visual studies department (1966-1989) By descent Born in Okayama, Japan, Naohiko Inukai began his studies in art before coming to the United States in 1961, where he continued his art education at the Art Students League, the National Academy of Fine Arts, and the Cooper Union School of Art and Architecture. Inukai had two solo shows at Staempfli Gallery in New York. His work may be found in many public and private collections in the United States and Japan. Inukai taught art at Dartmouth College, Rhode Island School of Design, and Silvermine College of Art. From 1971-1972 he was a visiting critic at Cornell University, and from 1970-1971 he was a visiting artist at Dartmouth College. Inukai returned to Japan in the early 1980s, where he still resides.
