Ichiro Yamamoto
Ichiro Yamamoto’s intention of making visual art is to represent his own pure activity of thought and emotion by rationally constructed trace on a flat space. After leaving Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music 1963, the artist has had different solo and group exhibitions in Tokyo, Yokohama and Mito. Many were featured in newspapers and major art magazines. When New York curators from the Museum of Modern Art visited in Japan in 1971, his artworks were selected as one of the eight most interesting arts in Japan.
