Kiyoshi Hasegawa is a copperplate painter who started his creative activities as a print artist for the literary magazine “Masked” in the mid-1910s, and has been based in Paris since he left Japan in 1918.
An exhibition will be held at the Machida City Museum of Graphic Arts from July 16th (Sat) to September 25th (Sun), 2022.
Hasegawa has been based in Paris since he left Japan in 1918, and has been highly acclaimed at the Parisian art gallery as a member of Salon d’Automne and the French Painters and Print Artists Association.
He has been awarded the Order of Culture in France and the Order of the Sacred Treasure in Japan.
