Leonard Fouijta: a bridge between east and west.

In the history of Japanese art, Leonard Foujita is undoubtedly one of the most prestigious international figures. Belonging to the so-called School of Paris, Foujita marked the art of the twentieth century with his ability to hybridize Western artistic modernity with Eastern tradition as no other Japanese artist had done so far. His style, of exquisite refinement and sensitivity, will be featured in the auction on the 27th, with an outstanding preparatory drawing of the splendid canvas “Amitié” belonging to the collection of the Pompidue Museum in Paris.
