Shoichi Ida Prints and Multiples

Japanese, 1941-2006
Shoichi Ida (1941-2006) Born in Kyoto, Ida worked with a wide variety of media and specialized in collage and prints. His prints employed a wide variety of technique including silkscreen, lithography, etching and traditional woodblock. His work explores spaces between objects that, seemingly, have no space. An internationally recognized artist, represented in major museums, his work successfully synthesized Eastern philosophy with international art currents. His art has been called "rich in craft and poetry." Shoichi Ida, who has lived, worked and exhibited internationally throughout his career, has chosen to remain in the traditional Japanese city of Kyoto where he was born in 1941. He earned a postgraduate degree from the Oil Painting Department of Kyoto Municipal University of Art in 1965. He received a grant in 1968 from the French government to live and work in Paris and also lived briefly in New York and in San Francisco. Among his many awards are the Award For Excellence in International Cultural Exchange from the National Endowment for the Arts presented to him and Robert Rauschenberg in 1986 and the prestigious Suntory Prize in Japan awarded to him in 1989. During his career he taught at the Kyoto Municipal University of Art and lectured widely in Japan and abroad. Best known for his paper works and prints, Ida has worked with a variety of media from painting, drawing, ceramics, metal, stone and cloth to environmental and installation art. Ida's art involves a melding of Eastern traditions with a truth to materials common to Western Minimalism. The link between the two is nature. In many respects, Ida’s abstract, mixed media prints fit in well with some of the more advanced, minimalist work being done in Europe and America, yet in other respects – in their sensitive utilization of handmade paper, for instance – they are very much a part of the Japanese tradition, where they easily take their place beside the work of Onchi and Kosaka Gajin. A friend of artists Carl Andre and Robert Rauschenburg, Ida was in rapport with the cutting edge of Western Contemporary dialog. He had met John Cage and loved the effects of chance, particularly the unpredictable results of naturally occurring processes. From the time of his earliest works he also admired Duchamps and word play. "Art is not making a beautiful surface, or drawing a realistic apple. Art is getting to an essence, reaching the senses." - Shoichi Ida
