Yanagisawa Kien (? – ?)
A contemporary artist known for vibrant abstract expressionism and captivating color palettes, creating immersive experiences through dynamic compositions; discover the emotional depth within their work.
Although the landscape is packed with cliffs, boulders, an assortment of trees, and mountains, the viewer is invited to travel the rugged terrain along the stream that begins with distant waterfalls at the top before meandering the length of the narrow composition all the way to the foreground. Two dense inscriptions in the uppermost register fill the composition’s only open space. The inscription at right includes three poems brushed by Yanagisawa Kien. The inscription at left, however, written five years after his death, includes six poems by the literati painter Miyazaki Kinpo (1717–1774). An early leader of the Nanga movement, Kien taught painting to literati artists Ike Taiga (1723–1776) and Kimura Kenkadō (1736–1802) in their youths.
