关根美夫（1922 ~ 1989）生于日本和歌山县。关根美夫在50年代初透过【自由画家协会】结交吉原治良，1954年追随吉原开创【具体美术协会】。关根1959年离开【具体美术协会】并且移居东京。他在1963年的第15届读卖独立展中，首次展示了他日后最著名的算盘系列画。

算盘是关根美夫艺术生涯中最具代表的主題。算盘珠子可以移动和重新排列，每种配置都表示一个数字。介于这种可重构性及符号特质，算盘珠子成为一种有趣的构图元素。在关根的一部分算盘系列作品中，珠子的位置指示作品完成的日期。通过在数字符号上的各种玩法，关根將「算盘」此物抽象化并呈现在画中。

关根的作品藏于国內外知名美术博物馆，例如东京国立近代美术馆，兵库县立美术馆，纽约现代艺术博物馆 (MoMA)，和慕尼黑现代艺术博物馆。

Yoshio Sekine was born in Wakayama, Japan. Sekine met the influential painter Jiro Yoshihara (1905-1972) through the Jiyu Bijutsu Kyoukai (Free Artists' Association) and was involved in the founding of the avant-garde Gutai group in 1954. Sekine left Gutai and moved to Tokyo in 1959. At The 15th Yomiuri Independent Exhibition in 1963, he presented a painting of an abacus for the first time.

The abacus was perhaps the most prominent subject in Sekine's artistic career. He produced many works iterating this motif in a diverse range of colour schemes and compositions until his later years. Abacus beads can be moved and rearranged, each configuration signifying a number. Because of this reconfigurability and semiotic function, abacus beads make an intriguing motif for generating geometric compositions. In some of his works, the bead configuration indicates the date the work was completed. Through such play on a numerical sign system, Sekine's depictions of abacuses seem to turn to abstraction. Simultaneously, these works could also be seen as representational images that bring out the abstract qualities inherent to the abacus itself, achieving a new kind of 'realism' that transcends traditional illusionism.
