[Introduction to Contents]
Why was Zeneisho created without writing?
In the 20th century, Japanese calligraphy underwent a major change.
Above all, the subject of debate is Zenesho.
Why was Zenesho created, and what is the artistic basis for Zenesho?
The birth of a book that answers these questions!
calligrapher Nankoku Hidai (1912-1999) went to the United States alone and interacted with local artists to explain the greatness of calligraphy.
His works attracted attention as a new abstract style unknown to the Western World and were often introduced in the mass media.
It has been added to the first collections including the New York City Galleria d'arte moderna di Firenze and the M + Art Museum (Hong Kong).
This book is the first commentary that introduces Nankoku Hidai, who created the first non-written Zenesho and became an unshakable existence as a pioneer of Japanese abstract expression, and introduces his works based on a large amount of materials and explains his thoughts.
