  • Naoko Morisawa's Mosaic Artwork Is Hand-Made of Thousands of Very
    Naoko Morisawa’s mosaic artwork is hand-made of thousands of very small slices of natural and oil-dyed (wood) chips on board. She incorporates the patterns in the wood and enhances them with oil-stain to explore imagery that comes from common items: a cupcake, shoes, a wave, and waterfalls etc. Her work has been exhibited internationally and locally at Seattle Art Museum Gallery; Whatcom Museum; Wing Luke Museum; FCA Gallery in Vancouver-BC Canada; contemporary art museums and galleries in Ginza, Aoyama, Kobe, Kawasaki, Yokohama, and Tokyo (Japan); Dublin Biennial International 2014 (Ireland); Roma Art International Biennale, 2015 and Florence Biennale International 2015 (Italy). http://www.naokomorisawa.com With each artwork requiring 45 to 50 days to complete, there’s My Dahlia – My Sister, 2012, 20” x26”, a temporal aspect to Naoko Morisawa’s artwork that might not oil-stained wood mosaics, acrylic and oil be apparent at first. Mosaic – the art of assembling small pieces paint, sumi ink, Japanese paper on board into a whole – requires great patience and skill. In work that is at once abstract and representational, Morisawa takes the art form to new heights with her exacting attention to the tiniest detail. In My Dahlia – My Sister, for example, the different shares of red in the foliage and the sparing use of blue and white in the flower itself are almost uncanny in the way they convey the flower. It’s as if Morisawa uses stained wood panel to take a realistic photograph – the elements of the flower which are unique are captured in the work of art.

    Thirteenth Presentation of the Charles Lang Freer Medal April 12, 2012 Contents 4 History of the Freer Medal 7 Opening Remarks Julian Raby, Dame Jullian Sackler Director of the Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery 13 Remarks by John Rosenfeld Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Professor of East Asian Art, Emeritus, at Harvard University 32 Sources and Further Reading 3 History of the Freer Medal From the frst presentation of the Freer Medal on February 25, 1956: his medal is established in commemoration of the one hundredth T anniversary of the birth of the founder of the Freer Gallery of Art. The late Charles Lang Freer was born on February 25, 1856, at Kingston, New York. For many years he was a devoted and discerning collector and student of Oriental art. He believed that more is learned concerning a civilization or epoch from the art it has produced than from any other source. With this idea in mind, he presented his collec- tion, a building to house them, and an endowment. The income was to be used “for the study of the civilization of the Far East,” and “for the promotion of high ideals of beauty” by the occasional purchase of the fnest examples of Oriental, Egyptian, and Near Eastern fne arts. This gift was ofered to the Government during the presidency of Theodore Roosevelt, to be given in trust to the Smithsonian Institution. The deed of gift was executed on May 5, 1906. Ground was broken on Septem- ber 23, 1916, and the building was completed in the spring of 1921, about eighteen months after the death of the founder in New York City on September 25, 1919.
