Kambara Tai ( Japanese: 神原 泰, Hepburn: Tai Kambara) (23 Februari 1899 – 28 March 1997), real name Kambara Yasushi, artist name Tai, was a Japanese poet, painter, writer, art critic and Japanese futurism pioneer. [1]
Life
Kambara was born in Sendai, Osaka, but his family soon moved to
Tokyo. Kambara Tai started out as a poet, but then temporarily turned to painting. In 1917 he submitted his paintings for the exhibition of the artists' association Nika-kai (二 科 会). In 1920 Kambara founded the
avant-garde art group "Action" (アクション, Akushon) together with
Harue Koga, Kigen Nakagawa (中 川 紀元; 1892–1972), Junnosuke Yokoyama (横山 潤 之 助; 1903–1971) and others. It was part of the group "Future Wings of Art" (未来 派 美術 協会, Mirai-ha bijutsu kyōkai), abbreviated to "MAVO" (マヴォ). He then founded the art group "Sanka" (三 科) in 1925 followed by "Layout" (造形, "Zōkei"), from which he withdrew in 1927. That was also the time when he seized his painting activities.
Kambara exchanged letters with
futurist
Filippo Tommaso Marinetti and wrote numerous publications about futurism. In 1990 he donated his material on
Picasso and the avant-garde movement as the "Kambara Tai Library" to the
Ohara Museum of Art in
Kurashiki.
He died as a result of heart failure on March 28, 1997, in
Minami-ku, Yokohama at the age of 98.
