Splendid proof, printed on Torinoko paper. Perfect preservation with uncut margins.
Hajime Namiki (Tokyo 1947) initially trained as a sculptor, studying sculpture with Shigeru Ogura in 1965 to join the Japanese Sculpture Association in 1974. He then approached woodblock printing in 1978.
Namiki's most characteristic works, which follow the tradition of sōsaku hanga by carving and printing the blocks himself, are printed with oil-based pigments on backgrounds of silver or gold leaf, on handmade Torinoko paper, which creates a reflective surface capable of changing with light and the angle of observation.
Namiki has extensively exhibited his woodblock prints in Japan and internationally. His works are present in the collections of the White House, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the New Orleans Museum of Art.
