Yoshimitsu Takashima
Born in Tateoka-cho, Kitamurayama-gun (now Murayama City), Yoshimitsu Takashima (1894-1987, real name Kozo) moved to Tokyo to become a painter and studied under Tamon Yamauchi and Suiun Komuro at the Pacific Painting Institute and under Shotei Goto, a nanga painter from Yamagata City. Many valuable manuscripts, documents, and artworks were lost to the monsters. After returning to Yamagata City, Yoshimitsu Takashima devoted himself to the promotion of Japanese-style painting from Yamagata, including founding the Shunkokai, an art organization, in the postwar period.
This exhibition introduces his "Yellow River Campaign Military Picture Scroll," painted in 1938 when he was sent to Northern China as a commissioned military painter for the Ministry of the Army, as well as a sketchbook of his interviews that was rescued from the ruins of an air raid.
Takashima wrote, "Who Knows Flower Spirit," and taught his students to paint with their individuality, just as flowers have differences. Yoshimitsu Takashima's Japanese-style paintings 35 years after his death.
