Life and work
Fumio Yoshimura studied painting at Tokyo University of the Arts, graduating in 1949. He came to Manhattan in the early 1960s. He was married to Kate Millett, who dedicated her book Sexual Politics to him. In 1985, the couple divorced.
In New York he taught himself to work wood with various knives, chisels and drills and developed a virtuoso technique. He started with forms of plants and vegetables. He used white unpainted basswood, which gave a ghostly pallor to his sculptures of everyday objects such as typewriters,Шаблон:Sfnp sewing machines, bicycles, or a hot-dog stand. His style is often associated with hyperrealism, but he has described his works as embodying the "ghost" of objects.Шаблон:Sfnp Objects used for human activity were often the subject of his art, but he never depicted humans. "Three Bicycles" was the central work in an exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) in New York City in 1986.Шаблон:Sfnp
In 1981 Yoshimura was artist in residence at the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College, where he then taught sculpture as an adjunct professor until 1993. Works by Fumio Yoshimura are in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Hood Museum.Шаблон:Sfnp
