The Indianapolis Museum of Art will present the first large-scale exhibition
of works by Tawara Yūsaku, a contemporary Japanese artist known for his
highly energetic brushstroke. Universe Is Flux: The Art of Tawara Yūsaku
will feature works inspired by Tawara’s belief that the universe is
unstable and constantly changing. Executed primarily in ink on paper, his
works use the cumulative effect of many brushstrokes to create powerful and
expressive works, apparent in even his smallest 3 in. x 5 in. paintings.
Although Tawara eschewed representational art, many of his paintings recall
traditional ink landscapes or other forms in nature.
