Heta-Uma, a Japanese illustration style, was first proposed in the 1970s and flourished in the 1980s. It involves illustration that expresses a unique artistic temperament through the use of childlike and naive forms. However, such a special cultural phenomenon has not been widely explored in the literature. The aim of this article is to examine the Heta-Uma works during the 1980s and reveal the role of these works’ characteristics. We conduct a case study of the two most representative Heta-Uma illustrators: Teruhiko Yumura and Yosuke Kawamura. Specifically, we analyze a total of their 514 works using the combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods. Our key findings suggest that the number and the type of Heta-Uma works changed from the early 1980s to the end of 1980s and the text in Heta-Uma works potentially plays an important role in supporting their understanding. In addition, the study demonstrates that Heta-Uma is likely to have a relationship with Japanese aesthetics. We take a first step towards understanding Heta-Uma systematically, and believe that this article complements the knowledge gap in the context of Japanese illustrations. Meanwhile, our study opens up avenues for future work, such as investigating the birth of Heta-Uma, the relationship between the works and the social impact, and the effect of Heta-Uma on the modern Japanese illustrations.

解读80年代Heta-Uma插画作品的特点——以汤村照彦、川村洋介为例

Heta-Uma 是一种日本插画风格,最早提出于 1970 年代,并在 80 年代蓬勃发展。它涉及插画,通过使用童趣和天真的形式来表达独特的艺术气质。然而,这种特殊的文化现象并没有在文献中得到广泛的探讨。本文的目的是考察 1980 年代的 Heta-Uma 作品,并揭示这些作品的特征所起的作用。我们对两位最具代表性的 Heta-Uma 插画家进行个案研究:Teruhiko Yumura 和 Yosuke Kawamura。具体来说,我们采用定量和定性研究相结合的方法,对他们的 514 部作品进行了分析。我们的主要发现表明,Heta-Uma 作品的数量和类型从 80 年代初到 80 年代末发生了变化,Heta-Uma 作品中的文本可能在支持他们的理解方面发挥重要作用。此外,该研究表明,Heta-Uma 很可能与日本美学有关。我们朝着系统地理解 Heta-Uma 迈出了第一步,并相信这篇文章弥补了日本插图背景下的知识空白。同时,我们的研究为未来的工作开辟了道路,例如调查 Heta-Uma 的诞生,作品与社会影响之间的关系,以及 Heta-Uma 对现代日本插图的影响。该研究表明,Heta-Uma 很可能与日本美学有关。我们朝着系统地理解 Heta-Uma 迈出了第一步,并相信这篇文章弥补了日本插图背景下的知识空白。同时,我们的研究为未来的工作开辟了道路,例如调查 Heta-Uma 的诞生,作品与社会影响之间的关系,以及 Heta-Uma 对现代日本插图的影响。该研究表明,Heta-Uma 很可能与日本美学有关。我们朝着系统地理解 Heta-Uma 迈出了第一步,并相信这篇文章弥补了日本插图背景下的知识空白。同时,我们的研究为未来的工作开辟了道路,例如调查 Heta-Uma 的诞生,作品与社会影响之间的关系,以及 Heta-Uma 对现代日本插图的影响。
