Biography
Yasse Tabuchi was in 1951 the first Japanese painter who came to Paris after the war, before the “big invasion” of his countrymen, whom today is so numerous in I´Ecole de Paris.
Tabuchi started in 1951 at Sorbonne together with the painters Alechinsky, Hundertwasser and Appel. Everyday life as a Parisian made Tabuchi rediscover that he was Japanese. He has understood to combine the oil painting-technique from the West, which he exactly came to France to perfect, together with the Eastern esprit. His artwork can best be described as “Hokusai’s wave”, the waterfalls and sparkling abstractions, just as fantasy and the clear colours mix on the poetic and life-affirming paintings.
Tabuchi’s painting explodes like a shell apple opening up.
Yasse Tabuchi lives in France and has exhibited in the leading galleries, biennales and museums all over the world.
