Yuki KATSURA
Western-style painter, born 1913 in Tokyo. Katsura is regarded as one of the pioneering female artists in Japan, whose work spans the prewar and postwar eras. Katsura graduated from the Tokyo Metropolitan 5th Girls Senior High School, and then studied with Ken’ichi Nakamura (1895-1967) and at the Avant-garde Western Painting Institute. She participated in the Nika Association, and took part in the “9th Room Club” at Nika. In 1946, she co-founded the Women Painter’s Association together with the painter Migishi Setsuko (1905-1999). Katsura died in 1991, aged 77.
