The works of maestro Abe Hiraomi, from Fukuoka Prefecture, Kyushu, newly joining Shigyo Sosyu Collection this time, starting from 130 size “Ieji (Homeward Journey),” we have received a large number of comments remarking that they were amazed by the overwhelming impact of the artworks.
Director Shigyo Sosyu said when he first viewed “Ieji (Homeward Journey),” he sensed the most primordial and ardent spirit based on the ancient civilization named Jomon and succeeded to Susano (Unruly Savage Deity) of Japanese myth, which the Japanese possess.（※Periodical Publication Booklet “ARTIS No.2” in Interview column, Shigyo Sosyu speaks on the artworks of Abe Hiraomi is here）。
We would like to have you visit our gallery and experience the primordial energy by transcending time and tracing back to remote antiquity.
