About the Item
A great strong-edge painting by Naohiko Inukai, No. 16 is part of a series the artist created in the mid 1960s. Many from this series were shown at Inukai's two solo shows at Stempfli Gallery in New York (1966 & 1968). This work is a rich, deep blue with narrow bands of color at the edges. Under good lighting the piece seems to glow from every angle. The work is signed, dated and titled "N. Inukai / 1966 / No.16" verso with an orientation arrow and "Up". The canvas measures 40" x 40", and 42 ½" x 42 ½" x 2" framed. The painting is framed in a stick frame hand-made by the artist.
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, and was in many group exhibitions. His work may be found in many public and private collections in the United States and Japan. He 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.

- "Strengths and Weaknesses", acrylic, charcoal, art history, abstract, portraitLocated in Toronto, Ontario"Strengths and Weaknesses" is a portrait exploring several elements and strategies that fascinate the artist – notably the performance anxiety induced by simply being an artist, staring down the freight train of art history as it hurtles toward you every time you pick up a brush. Luck? Talent? Maybe. There are signposts and guides in this painting, of course (Cubism! Surrealism! Brancusi! Guston!), but they can clobber you too if you're not careful. Even the phrase "strengths and weaknesses" smacks of compromises and rationalization – deadly to an artist looking to construct their own integral world. "Strengths and Weaknesses" is an acrylic and charcoal on canvas measuring 54" tall by 54" wide. It was included in the artist's solo show "Comedy Cellar" at Freight + Volume Gallery, New York City in July 2018. (See last photograph for an installation view.) From Daniel Gerwin – "Schenck’s color is vibrant, wild, saturated to the point of overheating, and altogether brilliant in the balancing of hues, temperatures, shapes, and color quantities. The paintings have a remarkable coherence for their dizzying juxtaposition of so many small chromatic passages." (Essay: The Anxiety and the Ecstasy) Peter Schenck...Category
