Momohiko Shinoda
（Momohiko Shinoda (born March 28, 1913 - March 1, 2021) was a Japanese artist, printmaker, and essayist. Masahiro Shinoda, a film director, is her cousin, and Shigeru Wakayama, an architect, is her nephew.
Born in Dalian, Kanto Province, which had been leased to Japan, he learned calligraphy from his father at the age of five. He studied calligraphy almost entirely on his own, except for a period at a girls' school, and for several years from 1950 he was a member of the Calligraphy Academy, where he interacted with avant-garde calligraphers, before moving to the United States in 1956. In 1956, he moved to the U.S. to work in New York, where abstract expressionist painting was in its heyday. In 1956, he moved to the U.S., where abstract expressionist painting was at its peak. During his stay in the U.S., he held several solo exhibitions and received high praise, but he realized that the dry climate was not suitable for ink painting and returned to Japan. Since then, he has been working in Japan and exhibiting his works in various countries.
