About the Item
Kumi Sugaï, one of the most internationally acclaimed Japanese painters of the twentieth century.
Rare 1985 color lithograph by Kumi Sugaï. This limited edition, 12/50, in excellent condition is titled 'Oni'. Oni can be read "Nami" which means wave but also Blue Devil. Oni translates in Japanese folklore as a type of demonic creature often of giant size, great strength, and fearful appearance. They are generally considered to be foreign in origin. Cruel and malicious, they can, nevertheless, be converted to Buddhism.
Kumi Sugaï (1919–1996): A Brief Biography
Kumi Sugaï was a Japanese-French artist known for his innovative approach to abstract art, blending elements of traditional Japanese calligraphy with modern abstraction. He was born on January 3, 1919, in Kobe, Japan, and began his artistic career in the 1930s.
In the 1950s, Sugaï moved to France, where he became associated with the art movement known as "Abstraction Lyrique" or "Lyrical Abstraction." His works during this period often featured bold brushstrokes, dynamic compositions, and a sense of spontaneity.
Sugaï's art was influenced by his Japanese heritage, particularly the principles of Zen Buddhism and calligraphy. He sought to capture the essence of nature and the human spirit through his abstract forms, imbuing his works with a sense of rhythm and harmony.
Throughout his career, Sugaï gained recognition both in France and internationally for his distinctive style. He participated in numerous exhibitions and received several awards for his contributions to the art world.
