Lithograph Exhibition “Poems of the Four Seasons”
October 25 - November 30, 2008
This exhibition features lithographs produced between the 1960s and the 1990s. Unlike oil paintings and tempera works, the abstractly expressed forms of seasonal flowers and landscapes are completed with more vivid colors and bolder compositions. These are very valuable works produced by Ms. Yokoi, who was directly involved in the entire process of lithography, which is said to be the most complex and time-consuming of all printmaking processes.
Oil Painting Exhibition “Prelude”
November 17, 2007 - January 13, 2008
This exhibition introduces the transition of Yokoi Teruko's techniques until she adopted abstract expression, including early oil paintings made in Ms. Yokoi's hometown of Tsushima City before she left Japan and works made in San Francisco and New York from 1953 after she moved to the United States.
Teruko Yokoi's New Haiga “Close to Yosa Buson” Charity for Onoda Nature School
October 22 - 30, 2005
Painter Teruko Yokoi, who has lived in Bern, Switzerland for many years, is a poet of colors who continues to paint nature as an important theme of her heart (daisies, water lilies, mountains, etc.). Hiroo Onoda survived the "30 Years War" after fighting alone on the Lubang Island and moved to Brazil, where he ran a successful ranch. He is also working for the last time on the "Onoda Nature School," an educational program for children who appreciate the greatness of nature and have a spirit of cooperation and self-reliance.
Teruko Yokoi sympathizes with the philosophy of Onoda Nature School and will open the second support charity exhibition of 40 of her works. All proceeds will be donated.
