yoshio Fujimaki
Born in Tatebayashi in Gunma Prefecture, Yoshio Fujimaki (1911-1935?) suddenly went missing at the age of twenty-four, leaving artworks that cast a striking splendor on the world of sosaku hanga (creative prints) in Japan. Focusing mainly on the districts of Ueno and Asakusa, Fujimaki depicted landscapes of Tokyo in the 1930s, a decade after the Great Kanto Earthquake. This exhibition surveys 200 works including woodcut prints, drawings, Hakubyo-emaki (plain-drawing scrolls), and related materials from his life. Animated images of Hakubyo-emaki are projected throughout the exhibition to reveal the scenes described in the scrolls.
