| Note: | Keisuke Serizawa: A world famous designer, painter, illustrator, dyer, book, paper and print maker, Keisuke Serizawa attracted international attention as early as 1925 for his distinctive Kataezome style, combining Japanese dyeing techniques with those of Okinawan bingata. This he applied with equal success to kimono and fabric patterns, wall hangings, paintings, fans and original prints. Above all, Keisuke Serizawa became a leading artist of 'Mingei' -- which in Japanese generally means folk art. Winter is a fine example of Keisuke Serizawa's Mingei. |
| Shortly after the end of World War II, Keisuke Serizawa instituted his own workshop and teaching studio in his native city of Shizuoka. His reputation continued to spread and he received the highest award for any artist in 1956 when he was designated a "Living National Treasure" by the Emperor of Japan. After Serizawa's death in 1984 the Tohoku Fukushi University in Sendai, Tohoku District, constructed a museum comprised solely of Serizawa's art. The Keisuke Serizawa Art & Craft Museum now contains over 200 examples of this artist's fabric patterns and wall hangings and about 1,000 examples of his paper dyeing workshop productions such as original prints, fans and calendars. | |

The first took place in 1979 at the Mingei International Museum in San Diego and was entitled, "Keisuke Serizawa; A Living National Treasure of Japan". In 1998, the Riverside Municipal Museum, Riverside, California, launched a major retrospective entitled, "The Art of Keisuke Serizawa". | |
