Sakuhin 1958

"Sakuhin" is an abstract painting by Sadamasa Motonaga created in 1958. This piece utilizes a limited color palette of reds, blacks, and yellows, creating a bold and powerful composition. The free-flowing forms evoke a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of abstract expressionism, a style Motonaga was drawn to throughout his career. The artist’s use of vibrant colors and spontaneous brushstrokes creates a dynamic tension between the background and foreground, highlighting the artistic possibilities of non-representational art.
