Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Itchiku Kubota (1917?2003) was a Japanese textile artist. He was most famous for reviving and in part reinventing an otherwise lost late 15th- to early 16th-century textile dye technique known as tsujigahana (lit. "flowers at the crossroads"), which became the main focus for much of his life's work.[citation needed] As homage to the original tsujigahana technique and its legacy, he named the technique 'itchiku tsujigahana'. Kubota devised a new method of dyeing that produce unique richly coloured products, and he experimented with modern fabrics that would take well to the dyes and stitch-resist work.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. (CAD) Presue 1st Candian edition. No markings, a touch of rubbing to lower edge of front cover, Very Good. Wraps, 134pp, colour photos of the kimonos with small explanatory pphotos. The text is in French and in English. Kubota was most famous for reviving and in part reinventing an otherwise lost late 15th- to early 16th-century textile dye technique known as tsujigahana (lit. "flowers at the crossroads"), which became the main focus for much of his life's work. Itchiku tsujigahana is a complex process comprising several steps: first comes the preliminary drawing where the pattern will be stitched on the white fabric; then comes the tying; and thirdly, the dyeing of the fabric. The dyeing step has to be perfectly mastered to achieve the desired result -- the dye will react differently according to the fabric and the colours used. To get a multi-coloured fabric, each tone will have to be applied separately from the others. (2.2 JM LVR 202/b5 Size: 4to - over 9¾ - 12" Tall. Exhibition Catalogue. Seller Inventory # 06616
