Kunio Kaneko Japanese Woodblock Prints

For a long time, we have admired and collected works from Asia.  We are pleased to offer this collection of Sosaku Hanga prints from Kunio Kaneko.

Kaneko (b. 1949) studied under Joichi Hoshi and Sasajima Kihei at the Musashino University of Fine Arts. A member of the Japan Print Association, Kaneko often uses silver or gold leaf in his woodblock prints, creating a shimmering quality and sense of depth that can only be appreciated in person. His stunning and intricate prints depicting traditional Japanese subjects have been featured at art shows from France to New York, and continues to have exhibitions in Tokyo and other Japanese cities. The woodblocks offered by Panteek, pressed by traditional Japanese Baren, feature lush tree scenes which blend classic design traditions with a more modern approach to color.

Each woodblock is hand signed, dated, titled and numbered and published in limited editions. Please see item title for number, year and size. All are in pristine condition, very delicate, printed on a stunning silver or gold background which the photographs cannot do justice to.
