Shinji Yamamuro
Yamamuro Shinji (1939–) has developed and refined potato-block printmaking through self-directed study, while also undertaking numerous projects in book design and bookbinding. Alongside his existing works, this exhibition presents his new piece Hundred-Leaf Box, which incorporates words by the artist Shimura Fukumi (1924–, dyeing and weaving artist, essayist, Living National Treasure). Also on display are selected works from the Museum’s collection, including pieces by Aso Saburo (1913–2000) and others who drew inspiration from scenes of everyday life.
