Fan-tastic

*Fan-tastic*, a 2012 lithograph by Shuji Wako, depicts a large open black folding fan with orange-red ribs against a white ground, its surface bearing a gold square outline and a small paper crane in silver. Beneath the fan sits a round, patterned temari-style ball in orange, red, and gold, resting on a folded gold origami-like form with a red triangular accent at its base. The palette of black, gold, orange, and red is set in a spare, geometric composition with no additional figures or background detail; the print is pencil-signed and numbered in the lower margins.
