This exhibition gives us a complete portrait of KOGA Harue (1885-1933), a Nika-Kai artist born in Kurume, Fukuoka who was active in the Taisho and early Showa eras. He eagerly incorporated new current in European art into his work, interacting with friends in the worlds of literature and poetry to create a wealth of new styles. He also experimented with poetry himself. This exhibition focuses on the evolution in his style, and his poetry, over a period of about two decades, revealing new facts. Includes about 55 oils, 50 watercolors and sketches, and 20 other materials. |
