Tadashige Ono
Tadashige Ono (小野 忠重, Ono Tadashige, January 19, 1909, Tokyo – October 17, 1990) was a Japanese woodblock print artist prominent in the sōsaku hanga movement in twentieth century Japan.
Style and technique
[edit]Ono's early prints (prior to World War II), were deeply rooted in the social-critical movement of German expressionism and the art trend dominating in Russia and among critical, intellectual circles in China Lu Xun.
Later prints saw a lessened proletarian engagement, but the artist's interest in cityscapes, and the newly industrialised face of Japan remained constant throughout his career.
