Kunihiro Amano was born in Hirosaki in 1929. He is a
self-taught artist, who participated in all national (Tokyo) and International
Print Biennales. His woodblock prints are dominated by abstract, geometrical
forms with sometimes erotic references in strong colors. Early works were
influenced by Shiko Munakata. Prints by Kunihiro Amano are in the collections
of many international art museums like the Moma in New York or the Washington
Library of Congress.
