Description:
Organized by the Kelowna Art Gallery with guest Curator Ian Thom, this exhibition features over sixty prints by renowned artist Takao Tanabe. Tanabe is among Canada’s most celebrated painters and printmakers, recognized for his landscapes that bridge the gap between abstraction and realism.
Loaned from the Vancouver Art Gallery and the Winnipeg Art Gallery collections, many works in this exhibition have never been exhibited until now.
Featured works include Prairie Storm (1979), a landscape that breaks broader conventions in printmaking by incorporating ink hand brushing techniques, and Malacca Strait: Dawn (2004), a woodcut/intaglio print that utilizes form and colour to depict a stillness between ocean and land.
This exhibition is accompanied by an illustrated exhibition catalogue with essays by Guest Curator Ian Thom and Curator Christine May.
