Shigeharu Obana
This is the first in a series of exhibitions introducing “Chikugo-ists,” artists with connections to Kurume and the Chikugo region, where Shigeru Aoki and Hanjiro Sakamoto were brought up. Shigeharu Obana (1926–2016) was born in the present Ukiha-shi, Fukuoka, and continued working and painting in his hometown, Chikugo. He is known for his active involvement in the avant-garde art group Kyushu-ha and for his Chikugo River series, which he continued painting for more than fifteen years. This exhibition introduces a full view of Shigeharu Obana, who adhered to working exclusively in Chikugo, through paintings and related materials from early on in his career to his later years.
