Description:
Teiji Takai first came to attention in 1930, at the age of 19, when the 17th Nikaten (annual show of Nikakai Artists Association) accepted his work Civilization. Inspired by the urbanized culture of the early Showa period, he pursued his own paintings. After World War II, he moved to New York and started afresh as an abstract painter.
