Additionally, Tsuji launched a web magazine entitled Design Stories and in October 2016, for which he is currently the editor and chief.[2]

Personal life

Tsuji was born in Tokyo in 1959.[citation needed] He originally found success as vocalist, singer and songwriter for the rock band ECHOS which he formed in 1981. ECHOS' hit song "ZOO" has sold over a million copies.[citation needed]

In addition to music and writing Tsuji was a professor at Kyoto University of Art and Design from 2007 to 2016.[citation needed]

Tsuji was married to actress Kaho Minami from 1995 to 2000. Together they have one son. He was married to singer and actress Miho Nakayama from 2002 to 2014 and resided together in Paris, France. Tsuji has a son from this marriage as well.[3] After their divorce, Tsuji continued to live in Paris, retaining custody of their son.[3]

Career

As a novelist

Tsuji published his first novel, Pianissimo in 1989. HIs debut work won the 13th Subaru Prize for Literature (Subaru Bungaku Sho) in 1990.[citation needed] In 1997, he was awarded the 116th Akutagawa Prize for Kaikyo no Hikari (Light from the Straits).

In 1999, he was awarded the Prix Femina Award, a prestigious French literary prize, in the foreign novel category, for the French translation of Le Boudda blanc (The White Buddha, or Hakubutsu, published by Mercure de France).[citation needed] He is the first Japanese writer to ever win the Prix Femina Award.

In 2003, his seven short stories were published in the French literary magazine Je Bouquine.[citation needed]

In 2005, he was selected by French literary magazine LIRE as one of the world’s 50 prospective novelists.[citation needed]

In 2005, his serial novel was featured in the South Korean newspaper The Hankyoreh.[citation needed] Tsuji is the first Japanese native novelist to have his work published in The Hankyoreh.

In 2011, Tsuji wrote a children’s book called In Rapet’s World dedicated to children who were struck by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake.

As a film director

In the 1980s, Tsuji started producing independent films through his college’s movie club.[citation needed]

In 1999, his directorial debut, Sennen-Tabito (for which he did the direction, screenwriting, and music) was presented as an official invitation film for the 56th International Critic week of the Venice Film Festival.

In 2001, his movie Hotoke (director, writer, and music) was presented as an official selection in the 51st Berlin International Film Festival, in the Panorama section. In the same year, Hotoke was presented to the Deauville Asian Film Festival, in the Competition section, and won best image award.[citation needed] The film was featured in the 27th Seattle International Film Festival.[citation needed]

In 2002, his movie Filament (director, screenwriter, music) was submitted to the 37th Czech Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Official Selection Competition section and awarded the International Ecumenical Jury of the Christian Churches.[citation needed]

Tsuji also wrote and directed a TV movie titled Mokka no Koibito in 2002.[citation needed]

In 2010, his movie Paris Tokyo Paysage was produced and submitted to the 7th Festival du cinéma japonais contemporain Kinotayo (2012-2013)[4] and awarded the Prix de la meilleure image (best cinematography).

As a painter

Tsuji began oil painting in the 1970s while he was still in high school and used the barn at his home as a gallery to showcase his works. His creations, which combine painting, photography, and writing, led to the development of a unique composition in his oil paintings.

Tsuji later established a studio in Normandy and began painting the region's landscapes. His distinctive pictorial style was noticed and appreciated by the Japanese painter Hiroshi Senju, which helped to bring Tsuji's work to the attention of the general public.
