Title:	Print 188 - 11
Artist:	Iwata, Kiyoshi (Japan, Born 1940)
Date:	1969
Medium:	Original Woodcut
Note:	"An original, skilled, patient, experimental young printmaker, Iwata is ambitious as well, turning out an extraordinary number of prints in a variety of sizes, papers, and modes of expression. His designs require precise printing of a dozen or more colors. Their intricacy demonstrates the artist's skill, and the painstaking details of a single block demonstrate his patience, since with a single slip of the knife all could be ruined. He is constantly trying out new materials and techniques." *
	A Japanese woodcut and stencil artist, Kiyoshi Iwata produced his first published prints around 1965. Known for both his abstract and geometric compositions, Iwata exhibited his art in national and international expositions. In the late 1960's and early 1970's the artist experimented with fluorescent inks. Such is the case with Print 188-11, where fluorescent colors are strikingly layered together to create complex new tones and values. Kiyoshi Iwata is a full member of the Japanese arts association, 'Kokuga-kai'.
