This fast-growing shoot has been used as a construction material, a foodstuff and fuel for millennia, from India to Japan. Tanabe Chiku'unsai IV's art elevates bamboo to new heights. By weaving together small pieces of fibrous stalk, he creates vast, detailed sculptures without the use of rivets or adhesives. Under Chiku'unsai IV's skilled craftsmanship, bamboo is more than a functional tool: it is modern art, a unifying symbol of Japanese culture. His sculptures revere traditional workmanship, while conveying important contemporary messages - the codependence of nature and man, and the importance of protecting our environment.0Part autobiography, part introduction to the craft, this monograph follows Chiku'unsai IV's growth from a child marvelling at his grandfather's mastery of bamboo, to a maestro in his own right. Bamboo weaves his past to his present, providing a sturdy foundation on which his art continues to build.0"Love bamboos, live with bamboos," says Chiku'unsai IV. As this book demonstrates, he has done precisely that. 600 10 $a Chiku'unsai, Tanabe. 600 10 $a Tanabe, Chikuunsai, $c IV, $d 1973- $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 10 $a Tanabe, Chikuunsai, $c IV, $d 1973- $x Biography. 650 0 $a Bamboo work. 650 0 $a Art, Japanese $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Art, Japanese $x History. 650 6 $a Travail du bambou. 650 7 $a Bamboo work. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00826348 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117015744.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0A9584DAC48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
