The artist Tomanovic and the fashion designer Hempenius met early in 2003. Their meeting resulted in an innovative concept “wearable art”, with Tomanovic’s paintings integrated in Hempenius’s innovative men’s wear collection. The resulting collection was launched in July 2003 at The Plaza Hotel in New York, with an exclusive exhibition of Tomanovic’s paintings. Mr Auke Hempenius is the creative director and director of marketing and public relations of Milano’s Clothier. Hempenius was chosen as one of the top six sales specialist in the country by Daily News Records the men’s wear industry trade magazine. He is national co-chairman of the global movement “Dress up Thursdays”. Auke Hempenius specializes in color analysis and personal wardrobe.
Tokyo (2000 and 2002)
Bob visited Japan in 2000 and 2002 for exhibitions. In 2000 he won a price of the Japanese industrial city Kawaguch, a big city close to Tokyo. On invitation of the city, he stayed in Japan for 50 days, to make a big painting for the cultural center of the city. It turned into a piece of art of about 4 x 1 meter. The painting was received with big enthusiasm.
In 2002 Tomanovic was invited to cooperate in a special collaboration with the president of the Japanese Shikigaku Institute (Eastern Astrology). The result was an exhibition in Sozenji Temple in Tokyo, commemorating the 750’th year after the death of Dogen, the establisher of the Soto School of Zen. Tomanovic painted expressions of ten famous Samurai karma’s (destinies). Tomanovic was the first person ever allowed to exhibit art in a Soto Zen temple.
One of Tomanovic’s paintings has become a permanent part of the Sozenji temple.
