  • The Price Collection JAKUCHU and the Age of Imagination the Etsuko
    The Price Collection JAKUCHU and The Age of Imagination The Etsuko and Joe Price Collection based in California is world-renowned for its superb Edo period paintings. The Exhibition entitled The Price Collection-Jakuchû and the Age of Imagination will be held at the Tokyo National Museum (Ueno Park, Tokyo) from July 4th through August 27th, 2006. Some fifty years ago, Joe Price became fascinated by, and began to collect, paintings by the individualist artists of the Edo period, a field ignored by the art historians of the time. Mr. Price dubbed his collection and his foundation the Shin’enkan, borrowing one of the studio names of Itô Jakuchû (1716-1800), an individualist painter whose popularity has grown in recent years. Today the Price Collection centers around a superb group of works by Jakuchû, along with major works by Jakuchû ’s other Kansai region contemporaries such as Nagasawa Rosetsu (1754-1799) and Mori Sosen (1747-1821), along with Edo-based Rimpa artists Sakai Hôitsu (1761-1828) and Suzuki Kiitsu (1796-1858). The marvels of the collection include paintings by ukiyo-e artists and other painters who have recently attracted great attention from art lovers. This exhibition presents a selection of 101 works chosen jointly by Mr. Price and the Tokyo National Museum staff from more than 600 works in the collection. The exhibition is divided into five sections, with the paintings arranged according to their artistic lineage. A special feature of this exhibition is its avoidance of glass cases in one of the galleries and use of careful lighting effects to create a display environment similar to an Edo period viewing experience.

  • The Aesthetics of the Capital, at The
    Those Beautiful Images We Know So Well, Shown In Context Rinpa: The Aesthetics of the Capital, at the Kyoto National Museum Review by Emily Sano, October 20, 2015 The abundant exhibitions at many museums in major cities and the national museums provide one of the special treats of visiting Japan in the autumn. This year is no exception, but visitors need to know that this year's most significant exhibit for the traditional Japanese arts is Rinpa: The Aesthetics of the Capital, at the Kyoto National Museum. The exhibition, which opened on October 10, will last only six weeks, until November 23, 2015. While the excellent catalogue lists 175 objects, many are on view for shorter periods of time, and some displays change every week on Mondays during the run of the exhibition. The term Rinpa―which is combined from the second character in Kōrin's name and the character for "school" or "style"―was coined in modern times and did not exist during the Edo period. Though sometimes described as a school, Rinpa is less a direct lineage of teachers and their disciples than a lineage of personal artistic influence: Sōtatsu's work inspired Kōrin, whose oeuvre, in turn, influenced Hōitsu. Of course, these three artists never actually met: most artists working in the Rinpa mode discovered the aesthetic for themselves and pursued it out of admiration for their artistic predecessors. “Rinpa and Kyoto,” English preface, p. V) One of the most familiar of Japanese decorative styles, Rinpa (also spelled Rimpa, which this reviewer prefers, but I will stay with the Museum's spelling) includes works commonly viewed as the epitome of the arts of Japan.

  • Introduction This Exhibition Celebrates the Spectacular Artistic Tradition
    Introduction This exhibition celebrates the spectacular artistic tradition inspired by The Tale of Genji, a monument of world literature created in the early eleventh century, and traces the evolution and reception of its imagery through the following ten centuries. The author, the noblewoman Murasaki Shikibu, centered her narrative on the “radiant Genji” (hikaru Genji), the son of an emperor who is demoted to commoner status and is therefore disqualified from ever ascending the throne. With an insatiable desire to recover his lost standing, Genji seeks out countless amorous encounters with women who might help him revive his imperial lineage. Readers have long reveled in the amusing accounts of Genji’s romantic liaisons and in the dazzling descriptions of the courtly splendor of the Heian period (794–1185). The tale has been equally appreciated, however, as social and political commentary, aesthetic theory, Buddhist philosophy, a behavioral guide, and a source of insight into human nature. Offering much more than romance, The Tale of Genji proved meaningful not only for men and women of the aristocracy but also for Buddhist adherents and institutions, military leaders and their families, and merchants and townspeople. The galleries that follow present the full spectrum of Genji-related works of art created for diverse patrons by the most accomplished Japanese artists of the past millennium. The exhibition also sheds new light on the tale’s author and her female characters, and on the women readers, artists, calligraphers, and commentators who played a crucial role in ensuring the continued relevance of this classic text. The manuscripts, paintings, calligraphy, and decorative arts on display demonstrate sophisticated and surprising interpretations of the story that promise to enrich our understanding of Murasaki’s tale today.

  • Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art, 1600-2005
    japanese art | religions graham FAITH AND POWER IN JAPANESE BUDDHIST ART, 1600–2005 Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art explores the transformation of Buddhism from the premodern to the contemporary era in Japan and the central role its visual culture has played in this transformation. The chapters elucidate the thread of change over time in the practice of Bud- dhism as revealed in sites of devotion and in imagery representing the FAITH AND POWER religion’s most popular deities and religious practices. It also introduces the work of modern and contemporary artists who are not generally as- sociated with institutional Buddhism but whose faith inspires their art. IN JAPANESE BUDDHIST ART The author makes a persuasive argument that the neglect of these ma- terials by scholars results from erroneous presumptions about the aes- thetic superiority of early Japanese Buddhist artifacts and an asserted 160 0 – 20 05 decline in the institutional power of the religion after the sixteenth century. She demonstrates that recent works constitute a significant contribution to the history of Japanese art and architecture, providing evidence of Buddhism’s persistent and compelling presence at all levels of Japanese society. The book is divided into two chronological sections. The first explores Buddhism in an earlier period of Japanese art (1600–1868), emphasiz- ing the production of Buddhist temples and imagery within the larger political, social, and economic concerns of the time. The second section addresses Buddhism’s visual culture in modern Japan (1868–2005), specifically the relationship between Buddhist institutions prior to World War II and the increasingly militaristic national government that had initially persecuted them.

  • The Deer Scroll by Kōetsu and Sōtatsu
    The Deer Scroll by Kōetsu and Sōtatsu Reappraised Golden Week Lecture Series— Four Masterpieces of Japanese Painting: A Symposium Miyeko Murase, Former Consultant for Japanese Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Takeo and Itsuko Atsumi Professor Emerita, Columbia University Poem Scroll with Deer (part), Hon’ami Kōestu and Tawaraya Sōtatsu, early 17th century, handscroll, ink, gold and silver on paper, 13 3/8 x 372 in., Gift of Mrs. E. Frederick, 51.127 It has been quite some years since I last spoke here at this museum, so many in fact that I have lost count. It is really wonderful to be back, and I want to thank director Mimi Gates and curator Yukiko Shirahara, who invited me to speak today on the world-famous Deer Scroll by Sōtatsu and Kōetsu. This proud possession of the Seattle Art Museum is one of the most beautiful paintings ever created by Japanese artists.1 The scroll just came back from Japan after extensive restorative work. Although the handscroll itself does not bear any title, it is generally known as the Deer Scroll because the entire scroll is filled with images of deer, which are shown either singly, in couples, or in large herds. The animals are painted only in gold and/or silver ink, as is the very simple setting of sky, mist, and ground. As you may have noticed, these beautiful pictures of deer are really a background for the equally exquisite writings of waka poems in black ink. Here we have a symphony of three arts - poetry, painting, and calligraphy - as a testimonial to the ancient credo of Asia that these three arts occupy an equally important place in life and culture.

  • Tokyo National Museum
    Ⅱ Outline of the National Institutes for Cultural Heritage The Independent Administrative Institution (IAI), National Institutes for Cultural Heritage, was formed in April 2007 through the merging of the IAI National Museums (Tokyo National Museum, Kyoto National Museum, Nara National Museum, and Kyushu National Museum) and the IAI National Research Institutes for Cultural Properties (Tokyo National Research Institute for Cultural Properties and Nara National Research Institute for Cultural Properties), all of which share the same mission: the conservation and utilization of cultural properties. With the addition of the International Research Centre for Intangible Cultural Heritage in the Asia-Pacific Region, which was established in October 2011, the National Institutes for Cultural Heritage now comprise a total of seven separate institutions. Japan’s cultural properties are the precious assets of the Japanese people. In order to preserve and utilize these properties more effectively and efficiently under unified management, each ofthe seven existing institutions plays the following roles: Tokyo National Museum Kyoto National Museum Nara National Museum As Japan’s foremost museum in the The Kyoto National Museum collects, Nara National Museum collects, pre- humanities field, Tokyo National Mu- preserves, manages, and exhibits serves, manages, and displays cultural seum collects, preserves, manages, cultural properties, while also properties, while also conducting re- and displays cultural properties from conducting research and providing search and providing educational pro- across Japan and other Asian regions, educational programs.
