Event Description
Exhibition from April 1, 2013 through May 17, 2013. Artist Tokujiro Nishi studied with the Japanese artist Masao Hato, founder of the Sakujitsu-kai artists, a group created to continue the tradition of oil painting in Japan introduced by the art historian Ernest Fenollosa. Mr. Nishi’s paintings are thick with impasto and rich in color.
The paintings in the exhibition were on loan from the artist’s son, Ayumu Yokoyama, and his daughter-in-law, Dr. Kristine Mulhorn, an Associate Teaching Professor in Health Administration at Drexel University.
This exhibition was fully supported by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation.
