Hisashi Tenmyouya

Born Feb 10, 1966

Tenmyouya Hisashi is a Japanese contemporary artist.
Tenmyouya's unique style, he calls Neo-Nihonga, revives Japanese traditional painting as a contemporary art. In 2000 he also created the new-style "Butouha" which resists the authoritative art system through his painting.
In 2010 he proposed a new Japanese art scheme named "Basara" which is extravagant and extraordinary and embodies a Samurai aesthetic like "Basara" in the Nanboku dynasty era and Kabuki-mono at the end of the Sengoku era.
