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. This unusual installation technique is based on Price’s viewing aesthetic, summed up in his phrase, “there were no glass cases in the Edo period.” This exhibition is Price’s gift to the Japanese audiences in the hope that viewers will find genuine enjoyment in the works and rediscover the wonders of Edo period paintings. It is our hope that the exhibition will be an unfettered enjoyment of truly unique and fascinating paintings. The main exhibition is joined by a companion exhibition, “Family Gallery: How do you see Japanese Arts from the Price Collection?” featuring eight works from the Price Collection in a special display with educational materials and explanatory texts. Tokyo National Museum Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Inc. Who is Joe Price? Joe Price is the person who early realized the intriguing nature of Itô Jakuchû, and whose first encounter with Jakuchû has become almost legendary. Price visited New York with his father’s friend Frank Lloyd Wright. Along with being a world-renowned architect, Wright was also a collector of Asian art, and Price and Wright visited an antique shop together. There Price was fascinated by an ink painting of grapes. He promptly abandoned his original intention to buy a sport car to celebrate his graduation, choosing to buy the grape painting instead, without even knowing the name of its painter. This took place in 1953, when Price was 24 years old, which marked the beginning of his collection of Edo period paintings. Without knowing the name or biography of the painters, Price simply collected those paintings that appealed to his eye and tastes. His unique aesthetics and specific tastes pervade the collection, and not surprisingly, that first Jakuchû grape painting was soon joined by many more Jakuchû masterpieces. Fascinating Aspects of the Price Collection When Edo period painting is mentioned, generally the Edo Kanô school,which was began by Kanô Tan’yû, the Rimpa school of Tawaraya Sôtatsu and Ogata Kôrin, and the ukiyo-e woodblock prints and literati paintings of the late Edo period come to mind. The Price Collection, however, has few works by these artists. The collection’s core is found in the works of Itô Jakuchû and his fellow late 18th century Kyoto painters. The Rimpa works in the collection present a masterful array of works by post-Kôrin Edo Rimpa artists such as the late 18th century painter, Sakai Hôitsu. All of the paintings in the Price Collection reveal their artists’ unique views of natural imageies and highly individualistic methods of expression. These painters were long forgotten by post-World War art historians. Today they are once again attracting attention, as Japanese art collectors and scholars follow Price’s lead in their rediscovery. The Price Collection is a powerful, intriguing collection that transforms existing views of Edo period paintings. Message from Joe Price The art in the Price Collection is free from the overtones of religion, intellectual nuances, or overbearing stylistic conventions. The works are so coupled with the heart of Nature that can they appeal to people from all walks of life – no scholarly explanations needed. This I hope explains how an engineer from Oklahoma could fall so in love with the images. I assembled the collection simply by appreciating the visual appeal of the paintings. The quality of beauty and precision of line were dominant, consistent aspects of the art. I collected the art uninhibited by outside teachings. My inability to speak or read Japanese certainly turned out to be an advantage, for it forced me to select the screens and scrolls based on the artists’ skills, not their seals or signatures. Even today, when I find a painting, I seldom ask who created it. When a work has great quality, a great artist produced it. Serious Edo artists received unparalleled and meticulous training, and with their skill, ability, and great pride in their accomplishments, their paintings should have some mark, some stroke beyond the capabilities of ordinary men. There is no need to look at a seal to know that a scroll was created by a master. What may have started out as an insignificant hobby has now turned into something much more meaningful to me. My collection gave my life a new purpose, for I wanted the public to experience for themselves the same immense joy that this art brings to me. I hope people can see my collection as much more than an accumulation of scrolls and screens. It is like an album of images to be compared side by side to not just look at the different works, but to learn from them as well. I want everyone to examine the differences between the great masters, their gifted students, and those that, in the process of learning, attempted to copy their works. The Etsuko and Joe Price Collection is not intended to be seen as just a collection – it hopefully should be an experience.

The exhibition is divided into five sections based on the artistic lineages of the painters whose works are displayed. Chapter 1. Orthodox Painting During the Edo period, a painting school system that engaged in traditional style paintings was formed based on either blood relationships or teacher-student relationships between painters. The Kanô School and Tosa School painters were the main examples of such painting school system. Within the rigid organization of the social order by the Tokugawa shogunate and its shogun-daimyô ruled clan system, these schools formed the painting orthodoxy of the day and were the “official painters” in service to the imperial court and the shogunal government. This system and its rigorously controlled methods of painting production could make their paintings become too conservative and lose their sense of free creativity. Indeed, this might be called the fate that burdened these painters locked into their social caste and position. This section introduces works produced in these specific school-styles until the middle of the 18th century. While the works in this section were painted in the typical painting styles of their period, these superb works also reveal the individual emphasis of their painters, reflecting the Price Collection’s focus on expression over famous painter name.

  • 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.

There, not only the actual things visible but different perspectives and entirely new concepts were presented through a variety of implements and combinations of them. On such occasions, vases, incense burners, and tea caddies were employed as “tools” to express such ideas. The significance of the existence of such works of art as tools to give form to such ideas was great. In addition, having accomplished the Meiji Restoration in the latter half of the nineteenth century, Japan became open to Western politics, economics, and culture and aimed to form a new nation-state. In doing so, thanks to Japonism, Japanese-made products were highly appreciated abroad. However, in the 1880s, Japonism diminished and export declined. As a result, the producing centers lose confidence. This trend became definite with the emergence of Art Nouveau at the Paris Exposition of 1900. On that occasion, nearly 200 people visited Paris from Japan and recognized the actual state. While, on the one hand, this answer was a scheme to secure the market by means of a price war relying on low wages, on the other hand, there were people who attempted to launch Japanese artistry out into a new art, i.e.

The exhibition will continue on view through May 5 (Wed), offering roughly 40 works and free admittance. On the Exhibition With the turn of the 19th century came the rise of Euro-American globalization. During this unprecedented period of industrial and cultural prosperity, Centennial Exhibitions became a popular vehicle for countries to showcase their art and tradition. Furthermore, as diverse forms of expression began to be shared across cultures, art flourished and arose with entirely new innovations. Despite the excess, three major Japanese artists took center stage: Watanabe Seitei, Shibata Zeshin and Kawanabe Kyosai. With their originality, elegance and detail, their works caught the attention of the world and transcended the greatest of cultural boundaries. Despite their overwhelming success in the West and the subsequent impact of Japonisme, the exclusion of these artists from mainstream modern Japanese art history Watanabe Seitei, Wisteria allowed for them to be overshadowed for a long time. Thankfully, in recent years, their and Old Willow Tree works have gone re-evaluation and have rightfully regained mass recognition. We welcome you all to take this rare opportunity to collectively witness the works of three esteemed artists, who continue to stun audiences across many generations and cultures.

    News Release ATZ200730-E_E July 30, 2020 Artizon Museum, Ishibashi Foundation Rimpa and Impressionism: Arts Produced by Urban Cultures, East and West November 14 (Saturday), 2020 ‒ January 24 (Sunday), 2021 The Artizon Museum of the Ishibashi Foundation (Director: Ishibashi Hiroshi) is delighted to announce its upcoming exhibition, Rimpa and Impressionism: Arts Produced by Urban Cultures, East and West. The Rimpa school of painting was initiated by Tawaraya Sotatsu in the early seventeenth century. It evolved through the work of Ogata Korin in the early eighteenth century and Sotatsu’s and Korin’s colleagues in context of the townsman culture of Kyoto, then Japan’s imperial capital. In the early nineteenth century, Rimpa was carried on by artists such as Sakai Hoitsu and Suzuki Kiitsu, in Edo (today’s Tokyo), the shogun’s headquarters. In Edo, the evolving Rimpa school became an urban genre with a decorative aesthetic at its core. Impressionism was an innovative, modern school of art that emerged in Europe in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Centered on Paris, the Impressionists included artists such as Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Paul Cézanne who candidly expressed their impressions of their everyday experiences and the delights of urban lifestyles. This exhibition is an innovative attempt to compare and survey, through works by artistic geniuses nurtured by urban cultures in Japan and Europe, East and West, what the sophisticated aesthetics characteristic of major metropolises achieved. The exhibition includes the Impressionist masterpieces that are the core of our collection and Rimpa works from our collection being shown for the first time, plus masterworks from temples and museums in Japan.
