Tatsuoki Nambata died 10 years ago on November, 8 at the age of 92. He had been in good health until the spring of 1997, and he drew a big oil painting that year. We have published a lot of his prints since 1970s. I remember when I met him, just before he died, to ask him to sign for his prints that were made for book of paintings of Q Ei. Nambata made many prints, but some of them were not published. We will exhibit approximately 20 of his works including oil paintings and prints, especially rarely unpublished ones.
