About the Item
A quite beautiful and alluring original ink of paper drawing of a strong standing woman/female nude by Japanese American (Nisei) San Francisco Bay Area artist Arthur (Art) Okumura (1932-2009) who was associated with the San Francisco Renaissance Art movement. An exceptional piece quite ingeniously designed and composed. Very striking.
The piece is signed by Okumura in the lower right and has an old article on the artist taped to the frame verso.
Okamura was born in Long Beach, California, on February 24, 1932. Okamura was an American of Japanese descent. During World War II, as a child, Okamura and his family were relocated to the Granada War Relocation Center in southeast Colorado.
After the war, Okamura attended the Art Institute of Chicago from 1950 to 1954, Yale School of Art in 1954, and the University of Chicago in 1951, 1953 and 1957. He later moved to California where he became a Professor Emeritus at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, California.
His awards include:
1951 Neysa McMein Purchase Award, Whitney Museum of Art
1957 Marin Cahn Award, Art Institute of Chicago
1960 Schwagacher-Frey Award, San Francisco Museum of Art
1976 Purchase Prize, San Francisco Arts Commission
Okumura's work can be found in numerous museums and permanent collections including the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., the Whitney Museum in New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), the Legion of Honor, the Oakland Museum, the Stanford University Collection, and the California College of the Arts.
A bold, statement work. Would be great addition to any collectors of Okumura's work or Mid-Century Modern art or make for an eye catching stand alone accent artwork in about any setting.
