Artwork location: France
Late mid-century acrylic on canvas, still life of a bottle by Japanese artist Mayumi Ozawa. Signed bottom centre with dedication and date to the bottom right.
This vibrant artwork presents a fascinating interplay of geometric patterns and optical illusions. Dominating the scene is a transparent bottle, ingeniously filled with a checkerboard design of white and burnt orange squares. These squares twist and turn, creating a mesmerizing sense of movement. The bottle appears as if it's caught within a whimsical dance of light and shadow. The background continues this theme, featuring a checkerboard of purples and pinks that provides depth and contrast. This dynamic backdrop enhances the central bottle's ethereal quality, drawing the viewer's gaze into the core of the artwork. The artist skillfully manipulates color and form to challenge perceptions, crafting an engaging visual narrative that captivates the imagination and invites endless contemplation.

Presentation
OzawaMayumi
Ozawa Mayumi (1941-) Western-style painter. Born in Tokyo. Currently resides in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture. Left L'Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs de Paris before graduating. In her 20s she married and divorced a surgeon. After working in the editing department for Shinchosha Publishing's “Geijutsu Shincho," she went to France in 1975 to study on an invitation by the French government. Transferred to L'Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs de Paris as a third-year student. While studying in France, she became engaged to Comte Turpin de Crisse (1931–1990), who was director of the cultural information department of France's foreign ministry and a professor of protocol and decorum, moved her base of operations to Crissay-sur-Manse in the Loire river area where they had a vacation house, and built an atelier (1976–1981). She fell under the spell of climate, buildings, and religiousness like those of nursery tales and made her debut as a professional landscape painter from that area. She was told by Yves Brayer that her paintings are characterized by a touch of warmth, and that determined her style. She was supported by and popular in the local area, but her works were handled by and permanently installed mainly by several famous galleries in Paris. Since returning to Japan in 1983, she has been exhibiting works mainly in personal exhibitions (Tokyo and Osaka). Her works are included in collections at art museums and libraries in Japan and other countries. Eight drawings of the old house where she lived in Crissay-sur-Manse have been used in a panel on tourist sites for the village, which is considered the most beautiful village in France, and they are posted on the walls of famous places.She became an honorary villager of Crissay-sur-Manse in 2013.
