Modern Japanese Printmakers. New Waves and Eruptions

Аннотация к книге "Modern Japanese Printmakers. New Waves and Eruptions":
Showcasing over 100 stunning full-page reproductions, the book reveals the wide-ranging styles that defined this era of artistic reinvention.

From the striking works of SaitoЇ Kiyoshi that blend traditional technique with modern influences and the bold monochromatic works of Munakata ShikoЇ to the refined calligraphic abstractions of Shinoda ToЇkoЇ and the colorful psychedelic works of Ay-O, the collection celebrates the vision of printmakers who challenged conventions and reinterpreted tradition.

In addition to well-known masters, lesser-recognized artists are featured with thoughtful descriptions that shine a light on their contributions. In-depth profiles of select living creators, informed by exclusive conversations with the author, provide a personal look at their creative journeys and ongoing influence.

Designed to complement the striking aesthetic of the prints themselves, this book is both a visual feast and an engaging exploration of Japanese printmaking’s evolution during a period of profound artistic change. Читать дальше…
