Japan House

NAGHIBACHI

(Not the actual picture of Habachi from the Japan House)

(Keyaki Wood)

Hibashi & Haikaki

Iron Kettle & Gotoku

Donated by Mrs. Michiko Seay

August 2004

The hibachi is a traditional Japanese heating device. It consists of a round, cylindrical or a box-shaped open-topped container, made from or lined with a heatproof material and designed to hold burning charcoal.

In North America, the term "habachi" is used to refer to a small cooking stove heated by charcoal (actually called shichirin in Japanese), or to an iron hot plate (teppan) used in Teppanyaki restaurants.

Although the word is Japanese and the device is strongly associated with Japan, the hibachi originated in China as a type of portable charcoal brazier used to heat the homes of the nobility.

Egon Schiele

Self-Portrait as St. Sebastian. 1914/15.

This is a big difference from his other paintings. This one is treated like a poster.

















Klosterneuburg, Kahle Baume and Hauser. 1907.

This painting has a reason to be dark and gloomy. The brush strokes add to the spook of this painting.

Little Tree (Chestnut Tree at Lake Constance). 1912.

The subject in this painting really pops. This painting is a remimber that simple really works.

Alphonse Mucha

The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia (1861). 1914.

It looks as if it was a huge painting. He did a good job of separating things without separating them. You can look at the huge background without losing the figures in the mid & foreground.

Meditation. 1886.

I love the title. It fits perfectly with this painting. It looks like a well-known person at that time almost out in nature.

Flower. 1894.

This is a great piece for women to model after. I applied the artist for having the women dressed... and having the flower around the flower.

Paul Rand continued

Cummins. 1962.

The word Cummins could have easily been drawn horizontally. Although it is still simple, the diagonal draws attention to the logo.

Enron. 1966.

This also has the diagonal, but in differ directions. The multiple colors in a single form brings this logo out even more.












United Parcel Service (UPS). 1961.

The simple notion of a bow on the gift box ties this logo together. With that the bottom shape doesn't look so much like a shield.

Paul Rand

For the Love of Letters. 1984.
This is a simple design using type. The use of line and scale makes this effective.






20th Century Art, Arensberg Collection. 1949.
The inspiration for all of these are designs using only type. The diagonal position of the A gives this piece a good compostition.






The Dada Painters and Poets: An Anthology. 1951.
Again only type, but not boring because of the placement of the letters. Color and repetition also has a play here.

Saul Bass continued

Identity for Minolta. 1980.
On this logo he plays with the thickness of line to portray depth or another shape. He used basic shapes simple and memorable.






















Identity for United Airlines. 1973.
He used color and line to create depth. With the lighter color in front and the curve at the bottom, if gives you the feeling of movement.

Identity for AT&T. 1966.

Again simple and not too many colors is best for a logo. Thought it was very interesting after viewing the first post of this artist, the same person produced these logos that we still see today.

Saul Bass

Poster for Vertigo. 1958.
Even though it is a movie poster, it is simple yet effective. It has movement with just using line.

Poster for One, Two, Three. 1961.
The only words I can make out at the bottom is 'Comedy'. I guess it's pretty obvious here. Have you seen 'Total Recall'!?

Poster for Bunny Lake is Missing. 1965.
It has the outline of a person's body, with her face lightly painted in the background. He also used that same like paint with the title; it took a while before I realized there was a 'G'.

The Stenbergs

The Pencil. Offset.
Although I can't read it, I like the
depth and composition.
It is also artwork using art media.


























The Traitor. 1926.
It has just the right amount going on.
Even thought it is somewhat flat,
you can still tell it has a foreground,
midground, and a background.

























The Man from the Forest. 1928.
The foreground and the background
play very well.
He has images in the foreground,
but at the same time the background
is still in your face.
