Folder (red cover) with 12 brightly colored, lose monthly plates on Japan paper (Folder partially used). Size 39x29,5 cm * Rare ! --- Keisuke Serizawa produced kataezome calendar folios starting with calendar year 1946. The 1946 calendar is shown in the catalogue for the 2001 exhibition of Serizawa's work held in Scotland. These calendar sets (one page for each month) are stenciled on handmade untrimmed Japanese mulberry paper. --- Serizawa Keisuke (j 13. Mai 1895 in Aoi-ku, (heute: Shizuoka) in der Präfektur Shizuoka; 5. April 1984) war ein japanischer Färber, Kunsthandwerker und Vater des Archäologen Serizawa Chosuke. Er wurde als Person mit besonderen kulturellen Verdiensten geehrt, wurde 1956 als Lebender Nationalschatz für das Wichtige immaterielle Kulturgut Färben mittels Kataezome-Technik deklariert und Ehrenbürger der Stadt Shizuoka. Zudem war er maßgeblich an der Volkskunstbewegung (Mingei Undo) beteiligt. Serizawas wurde 1895 als zweitältester Sohn von insgesamt sieben Kindern des Großhändlers für Kimonostoffe Oishi Kakujiro in Shizuoka geboren. Nach dem Abschluss der Mittelschule in Shizuoka besuchte er die Höhere Technische Schule Tokio (heute: Technische Hochschule Tokio), wo er Industriedesign studierte. 1917 heiratete er Serizawa Toyoto und änderte seinen Familiennamen. 1927 las er die Abhandlung Kogei no michi (etwa Wege des Kunsthandwerks) des Philosophen und Gründers der Volkskunstbewegung Yanagi Muneyoshi, die ihn beeindruckte und die zu einem lebenslangen Austausch der beiden führte. 1928 besuchte Serizawa eine Ausstellung auf Okinawa, wo er die traditionelle Färbetechnik Bingata kennenlernte. 1931 übernahm er die Gestaltung des Einbandes für die Zeitschrift Kogei , der zentralen Publikation der Volkskunstbewegung. Vier Jahre später bezog er im Stadtteil Kamata in der Präfektur Tokio ein Atelier und begann die Bingata Färbung zu erlernen. Von 1949 an unterrichtete er an der Frauenkunsthochschule in Suginami. 1955 gründete er eine Firma für Färberei. Ein Jahr darauf, im April 1956, wurde Serizawa zum Lebenden Nationalschatz ernannt. 1976 stellte er auf Einladung der französischen Regierung im Grand Palais in Paris seine Werke aus. Im selben Jahr wurde er als Person mit besonderen kulturellen Verdiensten ausgezeichnet. Serizawa starb 1984 im Alter von 88 Jahren. Weitere Auszeichnungen waren die Ehrenmedaille am violetten Band 1966, der Orden des Heiligen Schatzes (4. Verdienstklasse bzw. Offizier 1970 und postum 2. Verdienstklasse bzw. Großoffizier 1984). Serizawas Verdienst besteht in der Originalität der Muster, Pflanzen-, Tier-, Menschen- und Landschaftsmotive, die er mit traditionellen Techniken des Kunsthandwerks wie den Edo-Mustern und dem Katagami etc. zu einem eigentümlichen japanische Stil verband. Dazu entwickelte er die Technik des Kataezome, einer Technik zum Färben insbesondere von Papier mittels Schablonen (katagami). Naben Papier und Textilien färbte er auch Gegenstände wie Noren, Bettzeug, Glas, Bücher, Wandschirme und Kalender. (Quelle Wikipedia) Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 700.…

In this title, he takes a closer look at ceramics, both stoneware and porcelain, from the Seto and Mino regions. The book also includes a preface by Yanagi Sori (1915?2011), who was an industrial designer and son of Yanagi Soetsu, founder of the Mingei Movement. The illustrations by Serizawa, printed in lithograph, provide a charming addition to the essays and photographs. Though he was a textile dyer and printmaker, Serizawa had a deep appreciation for ceramics (indeed all traditional folk crafts in Japan), and had ceramicists in his close circle. There are three illustrations tipped into the book, and a fourth, extra illustration loosely inserted. There is also a lovely scenic illustration pasted on the cover, also by Serizawa.   The production of this book would have been very expensive, which would give some explanation to the small limitation of 80 copies. Indeed, the price of the book in 1984 was ¥45,000, a large sum at the time. This particular copy is inscribed in the inside of the fording case by the author, Miyashita Kozo.   Rare.

In 1956, he was designated as a Living National Treasure by the Japanese government for his Katazome stencil dyeing technique. A leading member of the Mingei movement founded by Yanagi Soetsu, Serizawa visited Okinawa several times and learned the "Ryukyu Bingata" techniques of dyeing. . His folk-art productions included kimono, paper prints, wall scrolls, folding screens, curtains, fans, and calendars. He also produced illustrated books, including Don Quixote, Vincent van Gogh and A Day at Mashiko. In 1981, the Municipal Serizawa Keisuke Art Museum was opened in the city of Shizuoka. Another museum, the Serizawa Keisuke Art and Craft Museum was opened in 1989 in Sendai. . The distinguishing trait of Serizawa's Katazome method is the use of the starch mixture to create, not a colored area as is current in direct-dyeing process, but a blank, a non-dyed example that forms a part of the pattern and that can later be multi-colored by hand or monochrome as the designer sees fit."

[Japan c.1960]. Ten sheets, on deckle-edge hand-made Washi paper, 10 polychrome stencil "Katazome" prints, very clean, 33.5 x 40.5 cm., complete suite, printed in a small edition. FIRST & ONLY LIMITED EDITION OF [200] COPIES R A R E ! . . *** **** *** . . . CREATED BY A "LIVING NATIONAL TREASURE" . , * Keisuke Serizawa [1895-1984] was named a Living National Treasure in 1956 by the Japanese Emperor. A leader in modern folk art, his technique known as "Katazome," or stencil dyeing was a pioneer effort. Born in Shizuoka in 1895, he has been the leading exponent for stencil dyeing ["Katazome"] on cloth and paper. He applied his technique to hand-made Japanese Washi paper and was an active illustrator of books. He used paper cut-out patterns then applied colors to the stencils. His works are highly coveted by museums & collectors throughout the world. . Serizawa was the leading exponent for the Sosaku movement [Creative Art Movement] along with his close friends: Yanagi Soetsu, Hamada Shoji and Bernard Leach among others. His works have been hailed as the most typical & charming folk-arts from Japan. . * This suite shows Serizawa's great interest and support of the hand-made papermakers and their villages of Northern Japan. The hand process of paper making is done in the winter, when the plants are dormant and the fibers are easily removed. This process requires the makers to immerse their hands in the freezing cold clear river water to separate the fibers and to perform the other hand processes involving freezing cold water, which had inhibited young would-followers of this folk-art from continuing. Few makers are found today using the old and most traditional time-honored methods. . * This suite then shows the whole process of hand-made Washi paper from beginning to end in a tribute to the Ogawa village paper-maker's stamina and stubborn attitude to stick with the old ways. Papermaking by hand is now a dying art in Japan, hand-made paper makers are now few and ever dwindling. This is a graphic record of the process and a superb and fine example of Serizawa's unique "Kataezome" technique and printing process on that hand-made Washi paper. This Washi paper is of an unusual large, Deluxe broadside size and was likely made especially for Serizawa to do this series and is 33 x 40.5 cm., except for the last example which is on stiff handmade-paper which is 33 x 38 cm. printed in Aizuri or with indigo-blue ink. Suites or even single prints of Serizawa's work are now exceptionally rare & seldom found on the market for sale. The charm of his illustrations are legendary, with delicate and subtle colors. . * BIBLIOGRAPHY: Fine Arts Gallery of San Diego: MINGEI FOLK ARTS OF JAPAN, p.[10-11] for a photos and essay about him. . * Six prints from this series are cited & illustrated in the SHIZUOKA MUNICIPAL SERIZAWA KEISUKE MUSEUM OF ART, as item 9 on pages 16-17. . * Bunsho Jugaku: NIHON NO KAMI: HANDMADE PAPERS OF JAPAN It is noteworthy to say, that Serizawa worked with Jugaku and even illustrated his book about Washi Japanese handmade papers with his lovely series of papermaking images. . * Martha Longenecker in concert with the Mingei International Museum, La Jolla, 1979: SERIZAWA, an exhibition catalogue from June 23-October 14, 1979, for additional biographical notes and illustrated color examples of his work. . *. …
