About the Item
TN686-D is a unique diptych painting by Japanese contemporary artist Hachiro Kanno. The painting is made with ink and acrylic on canvas, dimensions are 73 × 120 cm (28.7 × 47.2 in). This diptych artwork is composed of two paintings each measuring 73 x 60 cm (28.7 x 23.6 in).
The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The painter draws its resources from Japanese calligraphy and his favourite themes in Zen philosophy. Hachiro Kanno’s painting succeeds in synthesizing his Oriental heritage with western influences. Japanese calligraphy, with its expressive way of tracing each line, constitutes the basis of his approach. The artist transforms it into an abstract writing, a “writing come painting”. Hachiro Kanno uses Japanese ink, acrylic and, for the white, powdered pearl shell which gives his compositions a changing glint depending on the angle of observation. There is in his canvasses the immediately visible and then there’s the gradually revealing.

Hachiro Kanno
Coming from a family of traditional calligraphers, Hachiro Kanno explores the possibilities of calligraphy and transforms it into abstract writing, “a writing that has become a painting”. The artist has perfectly mastered the medium of ink: at times supple and voluptuous, at others taut and determined, the strokes of his brush reveal the speed or slowness of his gestures. The experience, perception, and awareness of nature and life, of becoming and passing, of movement and perpetuity — these are the concerns of the artist. “Today, when I paint I express myself differently to the way I did yesterday and to the way I will tomorrow. And yet, in me, there is an essentiality which lingers: yesterday, today, tomorrow right up to my death and even then beyond... That is what I want to convey by the notion of “permanescence”.”

- Munch Scream vs Monalisa SmileBy Alex Guofeng CaoLocated in New York, NYIn a captivating new collection, Alex Guofeng Cao dazzles audiences with his unique twist on instantly recognizable images. Inspired by history and pop culture, Cao manipulates one iconic image to create another in his extraordinary large-scale works. From a distance, the pieces appear to be a singular image but as the viewer approaches closer, you find each work is a masterfully crafted compilation of minute detailed images layered next to one another, creating a mesmerizing and hypnotic optical illusion. Cao meticulously places each smaller image to form a dynamic gradient from dark to light which tricks the eye into seeing one image. This expertise in contrast is exemplified in all of his works, from striking black and white pieces to stunning explorations in high-definition color. He cleverly mirrors this visual contrast in his subject matter by subverting the main image and creating a dialogue between the macrocosm and microcosm. Take the piece, Ali vs Armstrong; here we see the iconic image of Muhammed Ali’s victory composed of thousands of tiny portraits...Category
