Timeline

Iwao Akiyama (秋山 巌) was a Japanese woodblock printmaker and artist known for distinctive prints of owls, cats, and other animals in the style of naive or folk art.

1921

Akiyama was born in 1921 in Takeda, Ōita Prefecture, on the island of Kyushu.

1956

He studied drawing under the direction of a Buddhist monk during his childhood, then at the Taiheiyo Bijutsu Gakkō, graduating 1956.

He originally pursued suiboku-ga, a type of ink painting.

However, Akiyama changed his focus to woodblock printing after meeting Shikō Munakata, under whom he studied from 1959 until 1965.

In his prints, Akiyama limited himself to few subjects: animals, nude female figures, Buddhist deities and Buddhist monks.
