次期企画展「小泉清―その生涯とコレクション展」のお知らせ

”西欧的追究か東洋的解脱か。…俺の血管では西欧の血と東洋の血が闘っている”
小泉八雲の三男として生まれ画家となった小泉清は、フォーヴィズムの独特の画風と鮮やかな色彩、絵の具をチューブから直接カンバスに絞り出した奔放なタッチの油絵や美しい色彩の水彩画を残しています。西欧と東洋の二つの血のはざまで苦悶し続けた彼の生涯を当館所蔵の作品、家族や友人に宛てた書簡、愛用の絵の具箱などを紹介しながら、62歳で自らの命を絶った画家の素顔に迫ります。

Upcoming Exhibition
【Koizumi Kiyoshi―The Life and Works of the artist】

“Western pursuit or Eastern commentary. …Western and Eastern blood are in conflict in my veins.”
Koizumi Kiyoshi was the third son of Lafcadio Hearn. He painted in a distinctive style which showed signs of Fauvism influence. It was marked by his use of vibrant colours and the bold approach of squeezing paint from tubes directly onto the canvas. Kiyoshi secretly struggled with the conflict between his Eastern and Western identities. This exhibition traces the life of the painter through the display of his works held in the museum’s collection, letters to his family and friends, and his beloved painting equipment.
