Please read the research note in frame 12 of the photos. There apparently was some misnumbering--there is no Note 13.

This is a rare Maki production--a book plate.

Daniel Tretiak, after publishing his book The Life and Works of Haku Maki in 2007, found that he had more to say about prints as they came into his life. And so he wrote Research Notes and published them on this site.

This note is the fifth in Daniel Tretiak's series of research notes.

In 1990 Haku Maki produced as many as 6 different images of famed Mt Fuji(Fuji-san). Here are three, each one printed from a different block.

Daniel Tretiak's Research Note 12 took a look back at Haku Maki's works from 1965 to 1970.

In late 2011, I received several Maki prints of 1981. These all have leather-like surfaces. I thought this was a phenomenon of that year. I was wrong. Maki actually used this surface in 1971 for a few Persimmon prints and then not again until 1981. I show here copies from my Maki archives. When we filed those images a long time ago, they were not clear enough, are still not. But I think they are with that leather-like finish. Any views most gratefully received...

This Guest Research Note 1 is much ado about Nothing. The Maki print in question is 73-50A (Nothing). The essay is by David Bieling.

This note discusses newly emerged prints (it was written in July 2014). Daniel Tretiak wrote: Please enjoy. I own A C W and Flower Song 5.

The size of Sculpture: 27 1/8" High with base. 25 7/8" High without base. Base 11" dia. 18" Long. The weight 32 Lbs. This is one of famous Frederick Remington subject, "Mountain Man". I bought this sculpture in 1989 twenty years ago. The condition of Bronze excellent, no broken part of any. The base is made with metal and painted. The base has some wear around. There are some Ryokusho(natural green patina) from age. When I purchased 20 years ago, there was already some green patina...

This is a surprisingly good kanji It was done in 1972,slightly beyond Haku Maki's core period for such small kanji. It is the character for Mu or Nothing It is a very abstract depiction of the character, more so than most of Maki’s rendering of Nothing, which he did many times. This image is sharp and concise and it has drive. It has the Maki style and balance:a seal and the bottom margin. The seal at the right is balanced off by the splash at the left

The third part of Note 10 looks at the prints Maki probably did in the 1969 to 1975 period but that, at the time of Dan Tretiak's writing this, had not yet come to light.

This note looks at newly emerged prints that were created between 1968 and 1980. They include Work 616 (Moon and Bird) and the Figure series of prints.

persimmons galore. 81-3 added. * means I own it.

Yuji Abe passed away in Tokyo on 15 May. Japan art leader Abe-san was 86 He was a dean of the modern a Japanese print world from his base at Yoseido Gallery in Ginza. He tutored many young and not so young gaijin to learn about Japanese modern prints He was a dashing suave figure in his 50s. He had been in ill health for a number of years I attach a recently restored 1961 Maki print he may have handled way back then. This print was done 50 years ago...
