Shozo Shimamoto



From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Jump to: navigation, search

Shozo Shimamoto, born in Osaka in 1928, is a Japanese artist. He was an early member of the avant garde Gutai group founded in the 1950s, and his works are in museum collections such as those of the Tate Gallery and the Tate Modern (in both London and Liverpool) and the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art in Kobe, Japan. New York Times art critic Roberta Smith [1] has noted him as one of the most daring and independent experimentalists of the postwar international art scene in the 1950s. Internationally today he is especially noted for his work in the "mail art" genre, of which he was a pioneer.
