Kazuo Nakamura’s Summer Reflection, painted in 1960, is a compelling example of his innovative approach to abstract art. Measuring 37 x 48 inches and executed in oil on board, this piece is signed and dated in the bottom right corner. The painting captures the essence of summer through Nakamura’s unique use of colour and form.
In Summer Reflection, Nakamura employs a vivid palette to evoke the warmth and luminosity of the season. The composition features dynamic shapes and fluid lines, creating a sense of movement and light that reflects the vibrancy of summer. The careful arrangement of colours and forms invites viewers to experience the painting’s rhythm and depth, offering a visual reflection of the season’s energy.
Nakamura’s abstract style in this work not only showcases his mastery of technique but also his ability to translate the intangible qualities of summer into a visual language. Summer Reflection stands as a testament to Nakamura’s artistic vision and his capacity to capture the spirit of the natural world through abstract expression.
