Yuki Nishimoto 2024 Year of the Dragon Fair will be held

2023.12.19 (TUE)

Popular contemporary ink-wash artist Nishimoto Yuki's new work themed on the Year of the Dragon is now on sale!

Nishimoto Yuki is an artist who continues to attract attention not only in Japan but also around the world, having done live painting at an event for Italian luxury sports car brand Ferrari, live painting at Art Basel Hong Kong 2023, and in charge of an exhibition in a private area of the 2023 FINA World Aquatics Championships in Fukuoka.

This time, in honor of the Year of the Dragon, which is the Chinese zodiac sign for 2024, we will begin selling a limited number of giclee artworks of dragons, one of Nishimoto Yuki's signature motifs, authorized by the artist.
In addition to the works exhibited at his solo exhibition "Hisumi" held in May 2022, a total of seven ink painting giclee works of "Dragon" will be on sale, including newly created works such as "Infinite Dragon," a ink painting created during a live painting session held exclusively for VIPs during the same period.

Not being limited by traditional techniques, this piece expresses the mysterious charm of the dragon to the fullest by pursuing a sense of dynamism and strength. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy the beauty and mystery of the dragon in your hands.

A giclee work that faithfully reproduces the "presence" of the real thing

The works being sold this time have been produced using the latest reproduction technology called "Giclee." Digital data of the original works has been reproduced in high definition and with a wide color gamut on the highest quality Japanese paper.
You can feel the deep shadows and shading of genuine ink painting to the fullest. It also has excellent preservation properties, and if stored in a good environment, it can maintain its quality for over 100 years.
This is a masterpiece that was supervised by the artist himself and completed in collaboration with a printing technician.

Yuki Nishimoto
Yuki Nishimoto
Yuki Nishimoto
Born in 1988, from Kagoshima Prefecture. Nishimoto Yuki is not limited by the traditional framework of sumi-e painting, but pursues "dynamism" and "strength" through his own unique techniques. In addition to his bold yet delicate sumi-e paintings, he also works on "ceramic ink paintings," which are painted on clay panels using glaze and then fired at high temperatures. His work has been featured in a wide range of settings, including live painting at events both in Japan and overseas, as well as in films, theater performances, and public facilities. He is currently based in Fukuoka and Fukui. This exhibition will display ink paintings and ceramic ink paintings, and along with his popular works themed around samurai and military commanders, you can also see works with the dragon motif that made his name known to the world.
