Artist Kuboku Takaku (1908–1993) and daughter Hisako Takaku perfected the ancient technique of waxresistant dyeing to create textile paintings, of which 71 obi (a sash), kimono, and other objects will be shown. Takaku’s work merged Japanese subjects with cubist and modernist styles, and he was the only textile
Head of a bodhisattva Website: TheSanDiegoMuseumofArt.org artist who effectively transitioned from the Fine Arts circles of the 1930s through 1960s into the world of high fashion for Tokyo’s elite. His daughter Hisako is now one of the last living artists to preserve the knowledge of this painstaking dyeing technique. Her obi and kimonos continue to be among the most chic and sought-after in Japan.
