This book is ``The Art of Arranging Flowers: A Complete Guide to Japanese Ikebana'' by Shozo Sato (1933-), who worked for many years at an American university to introduce and promote Japanese culture. Since childhood, he has been learning Japanese dance, as well as ink painting, oil painting, tea ceremony, and flower arranging. After graduating from art school, he also studied vocal music and theater, and in 1964 was invited as a visiting artist to the University of Illinois. He became an assistant professor in 1968, and was a rare educator who taught courses on traditional Japanese arts and devoted himself to the transmission of culture such as calligraphy, ink painting, ikebana, and the tea ceremony. He also received an honorary Doctor of Arts degree. In the English version, Sato has also been involved in many collections of works on tea ceremony, Japanese aesthetics, kabuki, theater, etc., but this is a book that introduces ``Ikebana'' and is a valuable book with plenty of color illustrations and text. . The text is in English. (Previous owner's sticker pasted on endpaper)
