Art Exhibition: Japan – Italy in Painting and Sculpture
WHEN THE EAST MEETS THE WEST Umberto Vattani Dans les arts rien ne vit que ce qui donne continuellement du plaisir. Stendhal Art is a vehicle through which artists communicate with the world, exploring and conveying their visions, emotions, and reflections. Among the countless talents that color the contemporary art scene, the fascinating figure of Tomoko Fait, a Japanese artist whose dazzling compositions amaze and stimulate the mind, inviting one to immerse oneself in a universe of forms in continuous mutation, variations of colors, and intriguing micro-drawings, stands out. Tomoko Fait, with her unmistakable art, creates works that go beyond mere visual representation, penetrating the soul of the viewers, evoking surprise and sometimes disorientation. It is easy to get lost in the maze of the flowing lines of ancient Japanese tradition, chasing complex combinations that turn into sudden floral constellations. The succession in the representation of moments and pauses invites one to stop, to go back, imagining fabulous and surreal paths. Her canvases are painted with the assurance of the stroke, sometimes interrupted and often modular, with a technique that skillfully blends signs and colors. Thus, seductive assemblages are born that capture attention and inspire imagination. Each fragment tells a story, each color evokes an emotion, transporting the observer on a sensory and poetic conceptual journey. The visual immersion in the labyrinths created by the artist reveals one or more fairy tales that seek a beginning and an end. Free and light forms are chased, one penetrates the compositions, breathes the density of dark presences, textures, lace. What appear to be true itineraries are divided into paths of the unknown, then move in circular movements among a thousand variations and successions of unrepeatable moments. One returns to reality, guardians of a oneiric exploration. Tomoko was born in Japan, near Fukuoka, to a bourgeois Buddhist family. Her father, a former military man, works in the naval industry, while her mother takes care of the house and children. Tomoko, intolerant and rebellious to Japanese traditions, leaves her family as soon as she reaches adulthood. In 1979, taking advantage of the admission of women to military service, she enters the Japanese Air Force. Although she aspires to become a fighter pilot, she is assigned as an engine mechanic. This experience pushes her towards independence and freedom, making her refractory to compromises. Despite a marriage and ten years of family life, Tomoko cannot suppress the desire to explore the world. She leaves Japan again in 1997, heading to Israel. Here, she attends art school and discovers her passion for painting. Since 2002 she has lived in Italy, where she has already held several solo exhibitions. When the work of Tomoko Fait intersects with the sculptures of Ruggero Lenci, a silent and powerful dialogue is born. The imposing totems of Ruggero Lenci, with their solidity and three-dimensionality, dominate the matter, while Fait’s paintings explore its essence and transform it into pure visual emotion. This complementarity between two different artistic languages, yet so intrinsically linked, gives rise to an aesthetic experience that challenges and enriches the viewer. The contemporary presence of some of the most evocative works by Tomoko Fait and Ruggero Lenci in these rooms invites us to take an excursion into the world of contemporary art that explores the boundaries between reality and abstraction, matter and spirit, allowing us to discover new perspectives on the meaning and beauty of art. https://www.arteditomoko.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/IMG_5401.mov
LaRanaRossa Gallery Latina
PRESS RELEASE – 10 october 2012 Latina – The accuracy of the sign. “A spiritual and intellectual journey apparently held together by boundary lines that have a sharp taste ” (from a text by Francesca Piovan). Tomoko Fait is sitting next to me with a demeanour of blissful composure. I ask her something too fast in Italian, she does not understand me, we laugh and by laughing Tomoko shatters the apparent infrangibility of the distance that separates our so very different beings. Her smile is the key to unlocking these ink labyrinths, to reaching her primordial artistic conception, to disentangling the thick texture of signs. Seeing her face lit up by her smile, I manage to understand what lies beneath her dreamlike compositions. Beneath the mathematical rigour at the base of the implacable yet unreal like logic that creates the extraordinary beauty of her figures, beneath the modular assuredness of her hand, beneath the austerity of every single dot, beneath the segmented tangle of fullness and emptiness: beneath all this we get close, the eyes observe and rapidly and without pause, they immediately look for the start and the end, the beginning and a goal. Only after visually being immersed in a mythology-like maze, can we see the fairy tale. Against the backdrop of a seductive silence, we walk through narrow streets, we meet fluctuating incorporeal figures, we enter mnemonic cathedrals, we come across a totem of ancient tradition, we feel the density of dark presences, we climb virtuous floral constellations of flowers, stepping over textures of laces, and we move with dancing figurines engaged in a childish Ring a Ring-o’Roses. We get lost in the art of Tomoko, and while lost we take every street as if it were a trail of the unknown, a spiritual and intellectual journey apparently held together by boundary lines that have a sharp flavour; to find then ourselves in a perfect circular motion, among many mutations, and many variations. We arrive at destination, which is conceived as a large point, homogeneous and perfect. We arrive at the value of time, which is spent living the fairy tale, intended as a succession of unrepeatable moments. We return to reality as the keepers of the value of a dreamlike journey.

Galleria Arte Maggiore Roma
PRESSE RELEASE – 20 May 2014 Rome- “Tomoko: the ceaseless search of her free painting method; .. what seems to be only a precise drawing is transformed by magic into a complex representation” “TOMOKO” is the title of Japanese artist Tomoko Fait’s personal exhibition. The exhibition is taking place under the patronage of the Institute for Japanese Culture, and will be held in the beautiful rooms of the Galleria Arte Maggiore in Rome from 25 May to 3 June 2014. Tomoko’s unique and unmistakable art will be conveyed by the beautiful works of hers that have been brought together in the setting curated by the art critic and architect Raffaello Paiella. “I would like to create a work that expresses me completely, but it is not there yet …” Tomoko Fait – Rome 2014. “Tomoko’s way of working is itself a work of art. Her ceaseless search, her painting without setting herself a priori shapes, periods or direction (“There is no message in my works”, she says), detaching herself so as to almost go into a trance and not see her hand fall on the canvas, on the sheet of paper. An “emotional emergency” that makes her chest tighten until she succeeds, sometimes with difficulty, in escaping from it. Her subtle way of working; what at first sight seems to be only a precise, decorative and pleasant drawing, is transformed, to a patient and attentive eye, into a complex representation; as happens when you look at the clouds, suddenly they take shape and enchant you. The emotions evoked by the refined elegance of the composition sometimes even threaten to overshadow the path that led to that formal solution, that point of momentary equilibrium that the work of art represents and which exudes a serene joy.

Interno 14 – -Roma
PRESS RELEASE – On May 28th, 2015 at 18:30 at Interno 14 _ the AIAC gallery space – the Italian Association of Architecture and Criticism presented “Emotional Emergencies” by Tomoko Fait curated by Ruggero Lenci and Raffaello Paiella. The world of architects, of which Interior 14 represents one of the leading expressions in Rome, has always been attentive to art and graphics. Therefore, once the gallery had seen Tomoko’s art which is so near to strict two-dimensional representation, it couldn’t help but organise an exhibition. The greatest designers of architecture from the 1900′s used India ink to design and represent their ideas, and some still continue to do so despite the computer. Just like Tomoko, who unites the expertise of an architect with an artist’s vision in his work. The exhibition is therefore as much a stimulus for artists and designers, as for architects, which now need to operate a rapprochement to manual design, always capable of prodigious and amazing cognitive investigations, as are Tomoko’s drawings. During the exhibition dresses and scarves inspired by the works of Tomoko will be presented for the first time. Not to be missed! (….) Driven by curiosity and wonder, those who carefully observing the images that come their way, at some point “discover” in the plot of refined writing little signs of life therein cleverly inserted: insects, microscopic animals, birds, in some works stray “sprouting seeds” and half hidden human faces in others. Everything under an expanse of colours, governed by the black line that defines them and renders them mats onto which deliberate gaps widen the vision like the gashes in the sky.
Salon d’Automne
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE SALON D’AUTOMNE The Salon d’Automne (Autumn Salon), or Société du Salon d’automne, is an annual art exhibition that has been held in Paris since 1903. The first Salon d’Automne was created on the initiative of the Belgian architect Frantz Jourdain, in collaboration with architect Hector Guimard, painters Georges Desvallières, Eugène Carrière, Félix Vallotton and Edouard Vuillard, and Maison Jansen (the first truly global interior design studio based in Paris), founded in 1880 by Dutchman Jean-Henri Jansen. Perceived as a reaction against the conservative policies of the Paris Salon, the show almost immediately became a beacon for 20th century developments and innovations in painting, drawing, sculpture, engraving, architecture and the decorative arts. Works by established artists were exhibited at the Salon d’Automne right from the early years, including: Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Auguste Rodin, Paul Cezanne, Henri Matisse, Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, Georges Rouault, André Derain, Albert Marquet, Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes and Marcel Duchamp. Later, Salon d’Automne went on to feature artists such as Marc Chagall, Amedeo Modigliani, Georges Braque, Georges Gimel, Henry Gotlib, Constantin Brancusi, Aristide Maillol, Vharles Desplau, Renè Ichè, Ossip Zadkine, Le Corbusier and Renè Laliqueas. Tomoko Fait has been selected to exhibit her painting “Amazzonia” at the Salon d’Automne in 2016.
