Shin Miyazaki
To commemorate the five-year anniversary of the death of Shin Miyazaki (1922-2018), this exhibition features the work of Miyazaki, who produced works based on interviews with traveling entertainers in the 1960s and won the Yasui Prize in 1967.
In 2004, Miyazaki represented Japan at the Sao Paulo Biennale (Brazil) in the national participation category and received high acclaim for his large oil painting, a rough collage of dungarees (bags used to store grain and other items). Miyazaki continued to work energetically until his later years, holding solo exhibitions at the Shunan City Museum of Art (2005, 2022), the Tama Art University Museum (2009, 2017), the Yamaguchi Prefectural Museum of Art (2011), and the Museum of Modern Art, Hayama, Kanagawa (2014), among others.
Miyazaki always continued to create inner mental landscapes, taking his own experience of Siberian internment after World War II as the starting point. However, these works are not dark and heavy, rather, they are filled with a humanistic atmosphere, affection, and passion that could be described as a hymn to life, and they attempt to get to the root of life.
This exhibition will feature approximately 30 of Miyazaki's early oil paintings, including the "Traveling Entertainers" series, as well as his paintings of women.
