Our from Japan the first speaker Kanji Ishizumi
We think agreement though the FANA member (Mr. Kanji Ishizumi) from Japan is the first speaker of us of 2011FANA Assemblage to be a very glad though are still at some plan stages of the Assemblage event. He will present the multimedia program by the emphasis on the history from which the family of him in Japan on Fan of Japan (ogi, fan, and uchiwa) makes businesses as much as fans. He is the fifth generation of Ishizumi Co. of the in existence since 1881 relative. He is planning to bring several pre-1940 fans shown in Assemblage. We are convinced of the desire that he may answer the question that you can have in surroundings of some Japanese fans.

The Saturday morning lecture by Mr. Ishizumi is free and open to the public. Any interested person may view the fan sale and fan auction but must be a member to sell fans or make purchases. For purchasing fans, memberships will be available at the door. To request a membership and reserve a table for selling fans, please contact the committee members whose names follow.

"We are most fortunate that FANA member, Mr. Kanji Ishizumi, from Japan has agreed to be our Saturday keynote speaker on the subject of Japanese Fans," said Committee Co-chairs Pat Capone and Tracy Winkler. "He will tell attendees about his family's 130-year old company of fan makers and will give a multimedia presentation about the Japanese Fan and share several fans in his collection. This will be a unique opportunity to ask questions about Japanese fan making."

Dear All,
Thank you for attending Fireside Colloquium on August 4.
Mr. Ishizumi has asked me to forward his thank you letter to everyone who was in attendance (please see below).
To all attendees,
Thank you very much for your coming to my presentation on Japanese fan at Japan Foundation two week ago. It was my great pleasure to have you with me in enjoying a short-time tour on Japanese fan culture.
Some people say that Japanese fan is a "moving museum of paintings and crafting arts" or "condense of universe into a small fan leaf". As a matter of fact, Japanese art is art of "miniature size, palm size or portable size". A very good example is Netsuke, a palm size sculpture, so is a fan. Fan is a portable art or moving museum of paint and craft. If I am given another opportunity to speak, I will be delighted to talk about Urushi-inlay techniques that may be applied on Japanese fan sticks, or fan paintings of various fan painters. Kano School of painters and Rinpa School are famous in fan painting. I will be glad to explain how framing or abbreviation make difference in fan painting. In other words, "let viewers imagine what is not painted" is a key word for a fan painter. Painter Sakai Houitsu is my favourite painter as he is the expert in my opinion in dynamic design of "abbreviation"
From Kanji Ishizumi
Please provide me your mail address and I can send you some booklets and small gift once I receive the documents from Mr. Ishizumi in September.
With Regards,

Thank you for your coming to Ishizumi Fan Exhibition

May 24, 2010

I should like to express a special thanks to those of you who visited Ishizumni Art Fan Exhibition Spring 2010 at Shorein Monseki, one of the most beautiful garden in Kyoto city, Japan.  It was my greatest honor to have a presence of you at the Exhibition. Some people came from Europe and some from Singapore.  I really thank to your long travel to Kyoto, Japan.
Coincidentally, there was an exhibition in Osaka City Museum which presents 287 collection of fans of the Konoike Business Group in Edo Period. Konoike was the famous merchant in Osaka in 18th and 19th century. They exhibited 287 fans whereas Ishizumi Fan Exhibition in Kyoto city held at the same time exhibited about 150 fans. The difference between the two exhibitions is that Ishizumi Fan Exhibition focuses contemporary fans as well as modern fans made 20th and the present century painted by current fan painters in Japan as well as in Europe and America.

Ishizumi & Co. will make its best effort to support the contemporary fan artists throughout the world to promote the Japanese fan art to the world. I, the head of Ishizumi & Co., express a special thanks to all of you and hope I will meet you again in fall 2010 exhibition.
