Details
Tanaka is known for his spellbinding, intricate landscapes that usher the viewer into a world of nature and magic. The minute detail the artist is able to achieve within his designs is astonishing. He conjures an entire cosmos within the confines of a sheet of paper. The life-like realism in Tanaka’s designs evokes a profound sense of concentration that is both meditative and poetic.
Connoisseur's Note
Tanaka passed away in October of 2019. He was a prolific artist, and his striking prints have now become quite sought-after and scarce. Our retrospective of over 50 designs from throughout the artist’s career is among the first online retrospectives to comprehensively showcase his astonishing abilities in this medium and highlight the diversity of his subjects.
