Takesada Matsutani

An elegantly designed, career-spanning book on Gutai artist Takesada Matsutani, whose paintings unite organic and avant-garde aesthetics.

Accompanying a major survey of Takesada Matsutani's work at the Centre Pompidou in Paris from 26 June to 23 September 2019, this catalogue fully illustrates the exhibition's artworks ranging from 1958 to 2019, and is complemented with multiple texts. Opening with an introduction from Centre Pompidou Director Bernard Blistène and President Serge Lasvignes, the book continues with an essay by the museum's Chief Curator Christine Macel. Valérie Douniaux, who has been working with the artist's archives since 2014, surveys the Stream works. Writer Yves Peyré offers a poetic view of the artist's work in relation to Japanese traditions. Finally, Toshio Yamanashi, Director of the Osaka National Museum of Art, contributes an essay focusing on the main themes of Matsutani's work.
