Special display of Ayako Rokkaku’s woodcut print
Ayako Rokkaku is an international contemporary artist well known for her unique hand-painting method. Her new woodcut print, “Untitled 2,” was completed as a masterpiece created by the carvers and printers who inherited the Japanese traditional woodcut printing techniques and will be displayed at the Tokyo showroom of the Adachi Foundation. This work is depicted in a “triptych” format commonly used for the ukiyo-e. Please come to see “Contemporary Ukiyo-e” with the light and brilliant colors and the energy of traditional woodcut prints produced by using a baren rubbing pad to rub water-based pigments into the fibers of the washi paper.
