About the Item
TN686-D is a unique diptych painting by Japanese contemporary artist Hachiro Kanno. The painting is made with ink and acrylic on canvas, dimensions are 73 × 120 cm (28.7 × 47.2 in). This diptych artwork is composed of two paintings each measuring 73 x 60 cm (28.7 x 23.6 in).
The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The painter draws its resources from Japanese calligraphy and his favourite themes in Zen philosophy. Hachiro Kanno’s painting succeeds in synthesizing his Oriental heritage with western influences. Japanese calligraphy, with its expressive way of tracing each line, constitutes the basis of his approach. The artist transforms it into an abstract writing, a “writing come painting”. Hachiro Kanno uses Japanese ink, acrylic and, for the white, powdered pearl shell which gives his compositions a changing glint depending on the angle of observation. There is in his canvasses the immediately visible and then there’s the gradually revealing.

Hachiro Kanno
Coming from a family of traditional calligraphers, Hachiro Kanno explores the possibilities of calligraphy and transforms it into abstract writing, “a writing that has become a painting”. The artist has perfectly mastered the medium of ink: at times supple and voluptuous, at others taut and determined, the strokes of his brush reveal the speed or slowness of his gestures. The experience, perception, and awareness of nature and life, of becoming and passing, of movement and perpetuity — these are the concerns of the artist. “Today, when I paint I express myself differently to the way I did yesterday and to the way I will tomorrow. And yet, in me, there is an essentiality which lingers: yesterday, today, tomorrow right up to my death and even then beyond... That is what I want to convey by the notion of “permanescence”.”

- PAINT Abstract Belgian Contemporary Oil Painting Ellen De Meutter Woman ArtistLocated in Surfside, FLEllen De Meutter Paint 2, 2007 Acrylic, ink and oil on canvas 31.5 x 23.6 in (80.0 x 59.9 cm) Provenance: Secrets & Lies show at her American gallery Roberts & Tilton, LA in 2007 Ellen De Meutter (1981) teaches painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Antwerp. In 2006-2007 she followed the HISK programme in Ghent, in 2013-2014 she did a residency at the Jan Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht. De Meutter is represented by Tim Van Laere Gallery since 2006. (they represent Tal R, Marcel Dzama, Tomasz Kowalski and Franz West) Her work has been shown in various exhibitions in Belgium, the United States, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany and Japan. In 2010 she had her first solo museum exhibition in Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens. Ellen De Meutter alters her viewer's reality by presenting a language in which she classifies the figures, shapes and colors from her personal world into a captivating utopia. Contrary to current trends in Flemish art, De Meutter is not simply relaying an anecdote; she composes unique imagery that allows her to experiment with the placement of the subject and unique treatments of her medium. De Meutter's repertoire of vivid, semi-neon colors contrast the muted grays blacks and grays on which they lay. These seemingly energetic colors are at once enhanced by the dark undertones of the canvas below, while simultaneously insinuating a concealed gravity of subject. Belgian art critic and curator, Luk Lambrecht remarks on De Meutter's painting: "she folds back 'her' world onto itself, into a solid mass of color from which, very slowly, vague contours emerge, which safeguard our expectations about looking at an image." De Meutter's scenes are reminiscent of schoolyard games, incorporating a series of text and symbols. By combing figurative imagery with basic abstraction, Ellen De Meutter creates wildly successful compositions that allude to her comprehensive understanding of contemporary painting. She was included in the show, Tomorrow is a long time: Ellen De Meutter, Gelitin, Kati Heck, Anton Henning, Friedrich Kunath...Category
