Haboku (Flung-ink) Landscape, c. 1510. Creator: Sh?getsu T?kan (Japanese, 1440?-1529)
Haboku (Flung-ink) Landscape, c. 1510. This vague but energetically rendered landscape highlights the brush: the messenger for a moments emotional or spiritual state. The painting represents one of many subjects and styles Shugetsu studied and absorbed from the great practitioners of Ming-dynasty China in the late 1400s and early 1500s. The technique of " flung ink, " or haboku, disguises purposeful composition as an almost random, distracted series of brushstrokes. Close inspection reveals tonalities and strokes brushed onto a soft, absorbent paper in a range from heavy and wet to crisp ink charges. Not surprisingly, amateur and professional Zen monk-painters favored this " impressionistic" style as an exercise in seeing meaningful detail slowly emerge from what at first seems unclear
