(1916–1985)
Born in Tokyo, Inoue studied calligraphy under Ueda Sōkyū, an avant-garde calligrapher who also mentored Morita Shiryū. Inoue co-founded the calligraphers’ group Bokujinkai. His large-scale, experimental calligraphy of single Chinese characters resonated strongly with the concurrent movement of Abstract Expressionism and breathed new life into the calligraphy world in Japan. Regarded as daring and innovative, his works were widely exhibited in Japan and abroad, including Documenta 2 in Kassel (1959) and the São Paulo Biennial (1957, 1961).
