"Echoes of Japan: the Woodblock Prints of Paul Binnie" Exhibition
Scholten Japanese Art
This event has ended.
Paul Binnie, a Scotsman living in London, has over the past 15 years become one the most important artists working in the Japanese tradition of woodblock printmaking. He has taken up the mantel of the shin-hanga ('new print') artists of the early to mid-20th century, producing works that can only be described as innately Japanese. For his inaugural show at Scholten, Binnie will release two new woodblock prints of a most-appropriate subject, 'New York' (an image of the Woolworth Building) which is the newest installment for his series, 'Travels with the Master', an ongoing homage to his favorite Japanese print artist, Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950).
