Description
(Author portrait)
Onishi, ShigeruShigeru Onishi (1928-94) was born into a long-established family in Takahashi, Okayama Prefecture. Already by middle school he was engrossed in the study of advanced mathematics while also experimenting with poetry. In 1953 Onishi graduated from Hokkaido University's Department of Mathematics and remained at the university to research topology. In Hokkaido he began to take photographs, from the beginning seeking to express internal images rather than represent the external world. His first solo exhibition was at Nabis Gallery, Tokyo, in 1955; in the late 1950s he gradually shifted his interest from photography to abstract ink painting, which French critic Michel Tapié introduced to the European public in the 1960s and '70s with the Gutai Group. Onishi's work is held in collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Bombas Gens Centre d'Art, València, the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto, and the National Museum of Art, Osaka.Heiting, ManfredManfred Heiting is a designer and editor of photo publications and a collector of photobooks focusing on the period between 1886 and 1980. He has designed and edited extensive surveys of German, Soviet, Japanese and Czech photobooks-all published by Steidl. Heiting is currently working on an overview of Dutch photobooks.Onishi, Shigeru Shigeru Onishi (1928-94) was born into a long-established family in Takahashi, Okayama Prefecture.
