Detailed Description
Sosaku-hanga is a Japanese art movement that developed in the early 20th century. It is characterized by its use of traditional Japanese woodblock printing techniques and its focus on the artist’s creative process. Sosaku-hanga artists sought to break away from the traditional constraints of the ukiyo-e woodblock printing style, which emphasized the collaboration between the artist and the printer. Instead, they sought to emphasize the artist’s creative vision and to produce prints entirely by their own hand. This DIY approach was in line with the general spirit of the times, which valued individual expression and self-reliance. The most famous sosaku-hanga artist is probably Kathe Kollwitz, whose prints often dealt with social and political themes. Other notable artists in the movement include Shiko Munakata, Kiyoshi Saito, and Yoshida Hiroshi. The sosaku-hanga movement had a significant impact on the development of modern Japanese art, and its DIY ethos continues to be influential among artists today.
