Now and Zen 2019 Wall Calendar: Contemporary Japanese Prints by Ray Morimura Details

About the Author Ray Morimura is one of the foremost woodblock printers of his generation. His stunning woodblock and linocut prints juxtapose traditional scenes and subjects with modern techniques. Morimura studied oil painting at Tokyo Gakugei University, and he applies his training as an abstract painter to create simple yet intricately detailed images composed of geometric elements. Of his craft, Morimura says, Printing demands total concentration. A single hair or dust can ruin a print. One can never be certain of the outcome until the final print is completed. There is always the unexpected, which makes it all the more intriguing. Morimura's work has been exhibited in Tokyo, Seattle, Kanagawa, and New York, and at the CWAJ Print Show in Tokyo since 1990.

I hanged this calendar on my wall and within 2 weeks the hole ripped and entire calendar kept falling. I used the next month to see if it would happen again, and a week later it fell apart.
