Soft Cover. Condition: Very Good+. Exhibition Catalogue Series; B&W Illustrations; 7 1/4 x 10 1/4; Unpaginated pages; Soft cover has rubbing/scuffing, shelf wear, light bumping. Pages not numbered, ca. 60 pages. No date. Pages are clean and tight. Illustrated with 60 b/w drawings by the Zen Master. Sengai Gibon (1750 - 1837) was… a Japanese monk of the Rinzai school (one of three main schools of Zen Buddhism in Japan, the others being the Soto school and the much smaller Obaku school. ). He was known for his controversial teachings and writings, as well as for his lighthearted sumi-e paintings. After spending half of his life in Nagata near Yokohama, he secluded himself in Sho-fukuji (located in Fukuoka) , the first Zen Temple in Japan, where he spent the rest of his life. Though the Rinzai sect is particularly known for its hard-to-understand teachings, Sengai tried to make them accessible to the public. One of his famous paintings shows a circle, a square and a triangle. Sengai left the painting without a title or inscription (save for his signature) , however the painting is often called "The Universe" when referred to in English. "My play with brush and ink is not calligraphy nor painting; yet unknowing people mistakenly think: this is calligraphy, this is painting." Sengai Gibon (17501837). Illustrated by Sengai (illustrator).

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 1994. 1 Volume/1. -- Parfait état -- Broché semi rigide . Format étroit in-8°( 27,8 x 12,5 cm )( 670 gr ). ------- 255 pages richement illustrées. *********** Présentation du 4e de couverture : "" L'art de Sengaï, reconnaissait André Malraux, laisse le spectateur… occidental perplexe : aucun art extrême-oriental, poursuivait-il, n'est aussi éloigné du nôtre, et de nous ". Chaque fois que le sens des légendes inscrites par Sengaï en marge de ses peintures nous est dévoilé, nous comprenons un peu mieux les raisons de ce malentendu. Car, par leur signification et leur graphisme, les mots ont autant d'importance que le sujet. Du fait que ces courts textes souvent en forme de poèmes, avec leurs citations implicites, leurs allusions facétieuses, leurs sous-entendus nous échappent, nous n'obtenons des oeuvres qu'une perception mutilée. Mais, en un sens, cela est vrai de toute la peinture extrême-orientale, indissociable de la calligraphie, et pas seulement parce que celle-ci y tient presque toujours une place. Chaque chose représentée arbre, rocher, cours d'eau, maison, sentier, montagne - au-delà de son apparence sensible, reçoit une signification philosophique de la façon dont le peintre la figure et la situe dans un ensemble organisé. '' ************* ref 51.
