嶋本昭三的艺术本质可以说是「行动的痕迹」,它清晰体现了具体派的精神,且促进了国际间对日本当代艺术的关注。嶋本昭三是艺术世界中永远的先驱者。嶋本昭三为具体美术协会的创办成员之一,以为协会之命名者而闻名。为使「具体」升格站上世界舞台,发行协会刊物,将其邮寄至世界各地,与美术相关人士交流。此行为后来被广称为「邮寄艺术」行动,跨越国界与艺术同好相互寄送作品,促进形成艺术界人际网络。

嶋本的「大炮绘画」及「掷瓶艺术」深受国际认同,前者利用他自制的炮管发射出彩色的球,后者则是在瓶子中装满颜料丢掷到画布上。嶋本昭三的艺术本质可以说是「行动的痕迹」,它清晰体现了具体派的精神,且促进了国际间对日本当代艺术的关注。嶋本昭三是艺术世界中永远的先驱者。
