Education & Background
Toshimitsu Imai, born in Kyoto in 1928, pursued art after schooling, training at the Tokyo State Art Academy. Initially influenced by the Fauves, his career was defined by a keen sensitivity to color. He won prestigious awards in the early 1950s and later moved to Paris in 1952, studying at academic institutions and transitioning from representational to abstract art in 1955.
Imai played a crucial role in introducing European Abstract art to Japan through exhibitions and collaborations with international artists. His work gained recognition globally, particularly after showcases at significant biennales. Despite primarily being an abstract artist, he frequently experimented with figurative motifs.
From the 1970s, he incorporated words into his paintings and began infusing more Japanese elements into his art. Imai co-founded the Japanese Contemporary Artists’ Association in 1984 and engaged in diverse artistic endeavors, such as designing labels for a champagne maker.
Throughout his life, Imai received numerous distinctions and honors in Europe, including being made an honorary citizen of Madrid and Lyon and receiving French accolades like the Chevalier de la Légion d’honneur and Officier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. In his final works, he explored themes related to war, reflecting on Japan’s historical conflicts.
Sadly, Toshimitsu Imai passed away in 2002 after battling a long illness.
