Diversity in Style and Mood
By E.D.
yyHiLE the name of Kazuo

years become known as that of
a young Nisei artist, still it is
probably safe to say that his
works have heretofore been bet
ter known among hakujin art
circles than to the majority of
Japanese Canadians. However
last Saturday and Sunday,
thanks to the efforts of the
Kisaragi Club, an opportunity
was given to people in the Toronto area to become familiar
with his work and gratifyingly
large numbers came to visit the
exhibition.
Mr. Nakamura has been mak
ing quite a name for himself in
Canadian art circles. He is a
member of “Painters 11,” a
group of eleven Ontario paint
ers banded together loosely be
cause of theii' interest in abstract
painting. However, this emphas
is on abstraction does not neces
sarily lead to a similarity in
modes of expression and, indeed,
Mr. Nakamura’s contribution to
the recent Painters 11 exhibition
held in a Toronto art gallery
showed that he has developed
an individual style of his own
which, in terms of color, composition and technique, diverged
quite sharply from those of his
colleagues.
Last weekend’s exhibition in
the Kotobuki-Kai’s club rooms
(which are unfortunately rather
too small to allow full justice to
be done to each work in terms
of spacing and lighting) demon
strated that he is not limited to
an.y one medium or mode of ex
pression. There was great var
iety in the works displayed.
There were ink drawings—some
easily ‘comprehensible’ and of
these the most delightful was
“Breeze”, in which one could
practically hear the rustling of
the wind through the wheat
field—some more abstract, of
which one of almost suspended
skyscrapers drew the most comment and also the most enquiries to the artist. The water
colors were very delicate and
relaxing. Among the oils there
was the most diversity. In
‘"Bird’s Eye Viev ■”, a semi-abgreat depth of
perspective was achieved
through the use of extremely
luminescent yellows and light
greens. “Green Landscape” is
representative of several Naka

chiefly of great masses of dark

again sculpture in stone cannot
help but have a heaviness in the
form, while in wood carving one
is dominated by the grain of the
wood.
Interestingly enough these
greatly contrasting works do
not represent an artist’s search
through experimentation and
discard over a long period of
time for the one style that will
suit him. All 'the pictures on
exhibit had been created around
the same time. Mr. Nakamura
explained that he switches from
one medium to another- in order
that no one facet of his expres
sion should be overtaxed. As he
said, “If we overwork any part
of the brain—or of a machine—
it wears down. We should give
all. sides of our being full ex-
While some of Mr. Naka
mura’s works seem to the ob
server to derive some influence
from Oriental art forms, he feels
that childhood experiences, es
pecially roaming the fields
around his family’s farm in the
Fraser Valley have had the
most influence on his modes of
expression. “Essentially,” he
said, “even my most abstract
paintings are a representation
of country landscapes.” How
ever he also feels the pressures
of this scientific age and this
is particularly evident in his oil
paintings.

■ only, there is an awareness and
a respect for the fundamental
things which really matter-b
it a way of looking at life, at
humanity or at religion. The
play brings home in a gentle,
humorous way that it is the
unfamiliar things, small in
themselves, which can separate
peoples of different backgrounds
and different races. The Occu
pation, often adolescent in its
exuberance and its generosity
must build a school for the
poverty-stricken, defeated Oki
nawans, a school which must be
Pentagon-shaped, and bigger
and better than anything ever
seen in the small village of To
biki. The Okinawans, having
learned through numerous con
quests, allow the surface of
their national character to be

mocratized”, but remain at their
core as changeless as their old
traditions. To them a school
Pentagon-shaped is of no con
sequence but a beautiful tea

soothed into forgetting life’s
irritations by listening to the

is something to think and fight
for. And the conquered and the
conquerors settle their mutual
differences to mutual advantage, managing to keep sacred
the things which are sacred,
throwing out those things
which clutter up their respective
ways of life.
“The Teahouse of the August
Moon” is a humorous and happy
play, a subtle plea for under
standing. There will remain
with me many touching glimp

KAZUO NAKAMURA:
Diversity in Style and Mood
By E.D.
yyHiLE the name of Kazuo
’ Nakamura has in recent
years become known as that of
a young Nisei artist, still it is
probably safe to say that his
works have heretofore been bet
ter known among hakujin art
circles than to the majority of
Japanese Canadians. However
last Saturday and Sunday,
thanks to the efforts of the
Kisaragi Club, an opportunity
was given to people in the Toronto area to become familiar
with his work and gratifyingly
large numbers came to visit the
exhibition.
Mr. Nakamura has been mak
ing quite a name for himself in
Canadian art circles. He is a
member of “Painters 11,” a
group of eleven Ontario paint
ers banded together loosely be
cause of theii' interest in abstract
painting. However, this emphas
is on abstraction does not neces
sarily lead to a similarity in
modes of expression and, indeed,
Mr. Nakamura’s contribution to
the recent Painters 11 exhibition
held in a Toronto art gallery
showed that he has developed
an individual style of his own
which, in terms of color, composition and technique, diverged
quite sharply from those of his
colleagues.
Last weekend’s exhibition in
the Kotobuki-Kai’s club rooms
(which are unfortunately rather
too small to allow full justice to
be done to each work in terms
of spacing and lighting) demon
strated that he is not limited to
an.y one medium or mode of ex
pression. There was great var
iety in the works displayed.
There were ink drawings—some
easily ‘comprehensible’ and of
these the most delightful was
“Breeze”, in which one could
practically hear the rustling of
the wind through the wheat
field—some more abstract, of
which one of almost suspended
skyscrapers drew the most comment and also the most enquiries to the artist. The water
colors were very delicate and
relaxing. Among the oils there
was the most diversity. In
‘"Bird’s Eye Viev ■”, a semi-abgreat depth of
perspective was achieved
through the use of extremely
luminescent yellows and light
greens. “Green Landscape” is
representative of several Naka
mura canvases which consist
chiefly of great masses of dark
almost greens and blue-greens
curiously but not unpleasantly
outlined and crisscrossed by thin
uneven black lines. “Infinity” is
an essentially flat canvas whose
merging tones of greyish green
with very delicate overscratch
ings of thin black gives at first
a juonotonous impression buthidden depths reveal themselves
through further study.
pression.” He feels that the
particular medium he is working
in (he also does sculpture,
though none was displayed) de
termines to a, great extent the
form the work will take. For
instance, water color painting
is essentially working with
water and hence his water color
landscapes have a liquid haze
and indistinctness to them. Then
again sculpture in stone cannot
help but have a heaviness in the
form, while in wood carving one
is dominated by the grain of the
wood.
Interestingly enough these

not represent an artist’s search
