Ai-Mitsu ((日本語:靉光)) (1907–1945) was a Japanese artist and painter. He is usually identified as a Surrealist although he also painted works that can be classified in other styles and genres. He was born into a small landowning family in 1907 in Hiroshima, and given the name Nichiro Ishimura, which he later changed to Ai-Mitsu when he moved to Tokyo to pursue his career as an artist. In 1934 he married Kie, a teacher of the deaf who helped support him through his struggles as an artist. His most famous work is "Landscape with an Eye" (1938), currently held in the collection of the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo. It consists of shapeless forms with a large eye in a landscape setting. In 1944 he was conscripted and sent to China, where he died of a fever in the months after the war. == References == 〔 * (Richardson, Michael, 'Ai Mitsu', ''Papers of Surrealism'', issue 8, 2010 ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aimitsu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
