Domoto Hisao’s oeuvre can be characterized in three major periods, "Informal Art" in the 1950s, "solutions of Discontinuity" in the 1960s, "Possibilities of Chain Reactions" from the 1970s onward. Domoto is a major figure of the post-war art scene, and in particular a leading Japanese artist in 1950s Paris.
After a childhood in Kyoto surrounded in an artistic environment, a higher education in Japanese fine arts, and a trip to Europe with his uncle Domoto Insho, Domoto moved to the source of artistic creation, Paris, in an effort to further explore artistic expression. When he arrived in Paris in 1955, he was quickly introduced to Michel Tapié, leader of the Art Informel movement, which provided a platform for artistic development outside the boundaries of conventional art. He gained instant recognition for his abstract paintings expressing rapid movement, intense energy and unlimited depth.
In the 1970s, Domoto operated a return to "Asian" inspired aesthetics, and particularly developed an interest in circles and wave. He identified the power of the circle as a continuous form, which, if large enough, could become an area, and if small enough could become a dot which in turn could constitute a line.
