Key value factors: For living or recently deceased artists, limited edition size and gallery representation drive value. Signed and numbered prints from smaller editions are most desirable.
Created in 1976, this color woodblock and screenprint is catalog number 465 in Funasaka's sequence, printed in an edition of 45 (impression 21). It continues the "My Space and My Dimension" series begun the previous year, extending the investigation of personal spatial perception through geometric abstraction. The one-year gap between this and No. 419 encompasses roughly forty-six new works in the numbered sequence, indicating the pace at which Funasaka was generating compositions during this fertile period. The combination of woodblock and screenprint techniques gives the surface a layered quality, with the handmade warmth of the woodblock underpainting visible through or alongside the crisper screenprinted overlays. Impression 21 of 45 falls near the middle of the edition. The "My Space" series established Funasaka as an artist whose geometric abstraction carried personal and philosophical weight rather than serving purely formal ends.
My Space and My Dimension No. 465 was created by Yoshisuke Funasaka (舩坂芳助) in 1976.
