About Taro Okamoto
Born in 1911; died in 1996. An artist active across painting, sculpture, photography, writing and other forms of expression. The artist encountered avant-garde art and ethnology in prewar Paris and continued making art and expressing the artist’s ideas in postwar Japan.
For Expo ’70 in Japan, the artist was responsible for the theme exhibition and created the Tower of the Sun. The artist’s interest in Jomon and Okinawan cultures also provides insight into the artist’s understanding of art.
Understanding the technique
Serigraphy is also known as screenprinting. Ink passes through openings in a screen onto the support; areas of color and their overlaps offer points of interest when viewing a work. For specific terms such as “Neo Silkscreen,” we follow each work’s description rather than assuming an identical production process.
This is a general explanation of the technique. It does not describe the specific production process or condition of this work.
