About the Item

Artist: Shigeki Kuroda (Japanese, b.1943) Title: Red Olent Red Year: circa 1990 Medium: Soft ground etching and aquatint Paper: Nippon watermarked paper Image (plate mark) size: 14 x 23 inches Sheet size: 20.5 x 30 inches Signature: Hand signed in pencil by the artist Edition: Numbered 20/50 in pencil Condition: Excellent, has never been framed About the artist: Shigeki Kuroda was born in 1953 in Yokohama in the Kanagawa Prefecture. In 1977 he began studying painting at Tama University of Art in Tokyo and finished with a masters degree in 1979. In 1984 Shigeki Kuroda traveled to the United States where he learned different printmaking methods - etching, drypoint, mezzotint and aquatint. The artist grew up in the midst of a conflict between tradition and the western modernization and industrialization. Against this backdrop, Kuroda deals with the change of the Japanese cultural identity in his works. Kuroda has revitalised the use of intaglio processes through new combinations and modifications. He was born and still lives in Yokohama, was educated at Tama Art University, and has exhibited extensively. (Source: Jackie Menzies, Contemporary Japanese Prints: The Urban Bonsai, 1992, pg. 61) His works can be found in several important collections, including the British Museum, Cleveland Museum of Art, the Hawaii State Museum, the Tochigi Prefectural Museum of Fine Arts and the Yokohama Museum of Fine Art in Japan, and the Constanza City Museum in Romania.
