 Haiku Japanese Art and Poetry 2008 Wall Calendar | Haiku Japanese Art and Poetry Calendar : Wall : 2008In its spare, intense evocation of an emotion felt in a particular moment in time, haiku has much in common with Japanese painting, so many of whose images take their sharp immediacy from the nothingness that balances their composition. This calendar pairs classic haiku, some 400 years old and more, with prints and paintings of the past 300 years. Images include haiku in ideograms, transliterated Japanese, and English. This 2008 calendar is produced by Pomegranate in the category Japanese Art calendars. | ||
 Hajime Namiki Trees 2008 Wall Calendar | Hajime Namiki Trees Calendar : Wall : 2008Born in 1947 in Tokyo, Hajime Namiki began his art career as a sculptor, studying under the legendary Shigeru Ogura and exhibiting widely in the 1970s. Toward the end of that decade he began to learn the delicate complexities of carving and handmaking woodblock prints. Namiki uses traditional printmaking skills passed down over many generations to create delicate images of nature and myth. An underlying ground of gold or silver on handmade Torinoko paper adds to his prints' luminous quality, suggesting sunshine seen through foliage-as in the twelve stunning images presented here.

 Japanese Lacquer Paintings 2008 Mini Wall Calendar | Japanese Lacquer Paintings Calendar : Mini Wall : 2008A painter and lacquer artist in nineteenth-century Edo (today's Tokyo), Shibata Zeshin (1807-1891) perfected the urushi-e technique for painting with colored lacquer on paper. Unlike oils, urushi comes only in green, red, yellow, brown, and black and cannot be thinned or layered, so gradations and tonal variations are extremely difficult to achieve. Zeshin mastered these challenges and created works of exceptional delicacy and grace, as the images in this calendar attest.
