Cosmic Calligraphy The World of Saiso Shimada This magnificent large format (303 x 215 mm) hardback volume, published in 2017, contains superb reproductions of well over thirty works by the artist - most being recent and a good number included in her exhibition in the summer of the same year in Paris. |
In his foreword, Aleksey Bogolyubov, Curator at The Hermitage Museum, writes:
"Saiso Shimada ... has succeeded in taking calligraphy to new dimensions as an art form
with her exquisite balance of Japanese tradition and her own keen, unique sensibilities."
