京都美術大学日本画科卒業後、デザイン工房を設立し、各種工芸品企画に参画する一方、独特のタッチの“粋画”を創案されました。ニューヨークなどの各地で個展を開催し、海外からも注目を集めています。白と黒を基調にした大胆な構図で古都の風情を描き、木版画で再現しています。作品には画面下に落款が入っています。 Teruhide Kato, born 1936～2015
Teruhide Kato had studied at Kyoto Art College. He was a famous
kimono fashion designer. When he was 50 years old, he decided
to follow his real passion, and became a traditional Kyoto woodblock artist. Success remained with the artist.
After a gallery exhibition in New York and a book publication of
his works titled "Kyoto Romance" he is as famous as a woodblock
artist as he used to be as a kimono designer.
