Tamiji Kitagawa
Tamiji Kitagawa (1894-1989) lived and worked as a painter and art educator in Mexico in the 1920s and 1930s when the country was still in upheaval following years of revolution. Returning to Japan in 1936, he became known for the sharply critical social perspective of his work. After World War II he based his activities in Aichi Prefecture, where he painted large murals and promoted a more creative approach to art education. Commemorating the 130th anniversary of Kitagawa’s birth, this retrospective presents the many sides of his robust life and art through some 180 works, including 70 oil paintings, 70 watercolors, sketches, prints, and other materials.
