Norio Azuma Art

Japanese, 1928-2004

Norio Azuma was born in Kii-Nagashima-Cho, Japan, on November 23, 1928. He studied art while he was young in his native Japan. After emigrating at some point to the United States, Azuma then continued his art studies at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles and then at the Art Students League in New York City. Azuma worked as a printmaker, experimenting with creating serigraphs on canvas rather than paper, which was a relatively new development for Modernist practitioners of the craft and in the evolution of printmaking. What makes Norio Azuma's period Modernist vintage color serigraphs different from other silkscreen fine art prints, was his use of fine linen or finely woven canvas as a printing surface, rather than artist paper, as was used by most other printmakers, which helped him to be well known worldwide. His work can be found in numerous collections, including the Whitney Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum of Art, Seattle Art Museum, Cleveland Museum of Art, Smithsonian Institute and Library of Congress. Azuma died in New York on February 4, 2004.

Located in Soquel, CA

"Night Views" Silkscreen Print by The Skyscape Artist, 25/100. By Tetsuro Sawada ( Japanese, 1933-1998) This raven black geometric abstraction focuses on hard-edged horizontal lines, color, and light, giving the impression of dusk through the "bokashi," or shading, technique, which is most difficult in the silkscreen medium, a good example of Sawada's theme of the infinite beyond, the silent emptiness of the universe. Signature in the bottom right corner reads, "T. Sawada '87," titled in the bottom center, "Night Views," and numbered, "25/100," in the bottom left corner. Presented in a new white mat. Paper size: 34"H x 22"W, Mat size: 39"H x 27"W Born in Hokkaido, Tetsuro Sawada (1933-1998, Japanese) graduated from Musashimo Art University where he majored in Western painting. In 1960, he began painting abstract oils...
