Shin Miyazaki
This is a memorial exhibition for Shin Miyazaki (1922-2018), featuring works collected by a certain collector.
In the 1960s, Miyazaki created works inspired by traveling performers and won the Yasui Prize, a gateway for young figurative painters, in 1967. In 2004, he represented Japan in the national participation category at the São Paulo Biennial in Brazil, receiving high praise for his large-scale oil paintings that ruggedly collaged gunny sacks (sacks used for grains and other items). He continued to hold solo exhibitions at venues such as the Shunan City Art Museum (2005, 2022), Tama Art University Art Museum (2009, 2017), Yamaguchi Prefectural Museum of Art (2011), and Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Modern Art, Hayama (2014), energetically continuing his production until his later years.
Miyazaki continuously created inner landscapes based on his experience of being interned in Siberia after the war. However, his works are not dark and heavy, but rather filled with human qualities such as celebration of life, affection, and passion, aiming to approach the origin of life.
This exhibition will present approximately 30 valuable works, including his representative "Siberia Series," as well as drawings and prints of landscapes and figures.
