TETSUO MIZÙ: MIZÙ
Whitestone Gallery Tokyo is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Tetsuo Mizù.
Speaking of Mizù, his ‘flag series’ combined with the alphabets of “International maritime signal flags” spring to our mind; its unique texture derived from vivid color compositions and exquisite drawing techniques, which simultaneously hint at Japanese traditional aesthetics, has been highly acclaimed in Western art scene since 1980s.
This exhibition showcases circa 30 works reflected on the artist’s poetical sensibility to the fullest: among them, brand-new works inspired by the legendary musicians will be focused.
We sincerely look forward to welcoming you.

ARTIST

出生于东京的Tetsuo Mizù,1967年邂逅莫迪里安尼的作品,决心奉其为终生之师。他从「国际海事信号旗」获得灵感创作出的作品「旗帜」系列,在1980年代带给欧洲的美术界极大冲击。他的作品完全体现了矛盾冲突的魅力,抽象性下隐藏明快的讯息,以极细 线条区分满溢而出的雾面色彩。Tetsuo Mizù 的作品以冷静的手法,呈现并区隔两种属性的边界或其间的抗衡。Mizù也将这些图案与怀旧元素融合在一起回忆他在意大利的时光,以及他和女儿玩旗帜游戏的时光,创造出象征抽象的柔和色调节奏模式。在重新检视日本现代美术的独特性时,Tetsuo Mizù是不可被忽略的艺术家之一。
1998年举办长野冬季奥运的滑冰会场「白环」中,展示有Tetsuo Mizù高六米宽三十二米的旗帜系列陶壁画。此外,他也曾为罗马的拉维尼奥圣安娜教堂制作花窗玻璃、户田赛艇场大会堂的地板装饰画及VIP会堂纪念碑等。2009年在横滨港开港一百五十周年纪念活动会场中,展出高约三米五的旗帜系列六幅大型作品,备受瞩目。
