Susumu ENDO
"Space And Space" - 1988 Offset Lithograph on Paper

1988

About the Item

"Space And Space" - 1988 Offset Lithograph on Paper Offset lithograph titled "Space and Space" by Susumu Endo (Japanese, B- 1933). Two bottles are depicted wrapped with transparency, one bottle at each end. The bottle to the left is shown with a turquoise hue while the bottle to the right is clear. Born 1933, Yamanashi Prefecture. Musashino Art College; Kuwasawa Design School.Trained originally as a graphic designer, Endo started printing his lithographs in 1979. His early works, depicting everyday objects like pencils, light bulbs, eggs, bottles, were created by manipulating photographic images. In 1992 Endo progressed from the large machine to his own computer. A major change in subject matter came about when nature became the all-important element in his prints. Although the prints appear multi-faceted, only one photograph is used as the base. He experiments all the time, going back to his everyday objects, introducing them into his nature images or nature into them. His latest works have an ethereal quality, with light being as important an element as the grasses, leaves, trees. Endo works hard at not being stereotyped as typically Japanese, but, although fiercely contemporary, it is obvious that he draws from the long artistic tradition of Japan.
