Although he would meet a new slate of friends and future collaborators from Japan’s fractured avant-garde, it was the painter, critic, and poet Saburo Hasegawa who had the greatest impact. Noguchi would later characterize Hasegawa as his teacher in a unpublished remembrance from 1976. Their associa- tion, cut short by Hasegawa’s death in 1957, was brief but resonant. The two traveled together to Nara, Kyoto, and elsewhere in Japan in search of elements that could unite its past and future aesthetic traditions and shape the country’s artistic future. Hasegawa, equally conversant in Sesshu and the art of Marcel Duchamp, acted as a unique guide for Noguchi and could clearly communicate to him such esoteric correspondences. Their mutually engaging conversations in this short period were important and life changing for both artists. In 1954, Hasegawa would visit the United States again and become an ambassador of the Japanese avant-garde and a lecturer on tea ceremony, Zen, and Daoism to intellectual and artistic circles in New York and later in San Francisco, where he lived until his death. As the new director of The Noguchi Museum, it is my hope, along with our partners at Yokohama Museum of Art and the Asian Art Museum of San Fran- cisco, that the exhibition Changing and Unchanging Things: Noguchi and Hasegawa xi xii Preface in Postwar Japan will properly reintroduce Saburo Hasegawa to American and Japanese audiences and will reinsert him into the postwar and contemporary dia- logue. To that end, The Saburo Hasegawa Reader, a free-online and downloadable publication, offers English translations of his selected writings from Japanese art journals for the first time and presents an unpublished manuscript put together by the Oakland Museum in 1957. These texts suggest some facets of the artist who became Noguchi’s friend and teacher in 1950 when they together discussed so many topics in which they shared a profound interest. The early 1950s were a com- plicated time for American and Japanese relations, and these artists were at the forefront of establishing an international aesthetic that reflected aspects of each. We hope this glimpse into the period will a illuminate a dynamic moment for these two artists, and ultimately for the world of art they inhabited.

The exhibition is made possible through the lead support of the Terra Foundation for American Art. Gen- erous transportation assistance has been provided by ANA (All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd.). Major support has also been received from the National Endowment for the Arts and from the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation. The exhibi- tion is also supported, in part, with public funds from the New York City Depart- ment of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council, and from the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. We are grateful to Yoriko Yamamoto for her help with translations and more generally for her involvement throughout the long development of this project. We also wish to recognize the support of Keiko Morita at the Saburo Hasegawa Memorial Gallery and Koichi Kawasaki’s more than forty years of scholarship on Hasegawa. Finally, we extend our deepest appreciation to the Terra Foundation for Ameri- can Art for their leadership support, and the University of California Press for being our publishing partner in making the ideas of Saburo Hasegawa accessible once again. xiii Introduction Dakin Hart and Mark Dean Johnson Saburo Hasegawa’s suddenly high-profile work and ideas resonated in a mid-twen- tieth-century American art world that had been largely leveled and restructured by the turmoil of World War II and its geopolitical aftermath.

  • The American Abstract Artists and Their Appropriation of Prehistoric Rock Pictures in 1937
    “First Surrealists Were Cavemen”: The American Abstract Artists and Their Appropriation of Prehistoric Rock Pictures in 1937 Elke Seibert How electrifying it must be to discover a world of new, hitherto unseen pictures! Schol- ars and artists have described their awe at encountering the extraordinary paintings of Altamira and Lascaux in rich prose, instilling in us the desire to hunt for other such discoveries.1 But how does art affect art and how does one work of art influence another? In the following, I will argue for a causal relationship between the 1937 exhibition Prehis- toric Rock Pictures in Europe and Africa shown at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the new artistic directions evident in the work of certain New York artists immediately thereafter.2 The title for one review of this exhibition, “First Surrealists Were Cavemen,” expressed the unsettling, alien, mysterious, and provocative quality of these prehistoric paintings waiting to be discovered by American audiences (fig. ).1 3 The title moreover illustrates the extent to which American art criticism continued to misunderstand sur- realist artists and used the term surrealism in a pejorative manner. This essay traces how the group known as the American Abstract Artists (AAA) appropriated prehistoric paintings in the late 1930s. The term employed in the discourse on archaic artists and artistic concepts prior to 1937 was primitivism, a term due not least to John Graham’s System and Dialectics of Art as well as his influential essay “Primitive Art and Picasso,” both published in 1937.4 Within this discourse the art of the Ice Age was conspicuous not only on account of the previously unimagined timespan it traversed but also because of the magical discovery of incipient human creativity.

AN IMPERIAL HOUSEHOLD’S STRATEGY TO SAVE EMPEROR HIROHITO IN MACARTHUR’S JAPAN Kaoru Hoshino, M.A. University of Pittsburgh, 2010 This thesis examines the motives behind the Japanese imperial household’s decision to invite an American Christian woman, Elizabeth Gray Vining, to the court as tutor to Crown Prince Akihito about one year after the Allied Occupation of Japan began. In the past, the common narrative of scholars and the media has been that the new tutor, Vining, came to the imperial household at the invitation of Emperor Hirohito, who personally asked George Stoddard, head of the United States Education Mission to Japan, to find a tutor for the crown prince. While it may have been true that the emperor directly spoke to Stoddard regarding the need of a new tutor for the prince, the claim that the emperor came up with such a proposal entirely on his own is debatable given his lack of decision-making power, as well as the circumstances surrounding him and the imperial institution at the time of the Occupation.

  • Hollywood Goes to Tokyo: American Cultural Expansion and Imperial Japan, 1918–1941
    HOLLYWOOD GOES TO TOKYO: AMERICAN CULTURAL EXPANSION AND IMPERIAL JAPAN, 1918–1941 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yuji Tosaka, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Michael J. Hogan, Adviser Dr. Peter L. Hahn __________________________ Advisor Dr. Mansel G. Blackford Department of History ABSTRACT After World War I, the American film industry achieved international domi- nance and became a principal promoter of American cultural expansion, projecting images of America to the rest of the world. Japan was one of the few countries in which Hollywood lost its market control to the local industry, but its cultural exports were subjected to intense domestic debates over the meaning of Americanization. This dis- sertation examines the interplay of economics, culture, and power in U.S.-Japanese film trade before the Pacific War. Hollywood’s commercial expansion overseas was marked by internal disarray and weak industry-state relationships. Its vision of enlightened cooperation became doomed as American film companies hesitated to share information with one another and the U.S. government, while its trade association and local managers tended to see U.S. officials as potential rivals threatening their positions in foreign fields. The lack of cooperation also was a major trade problem in the Japanese film market. In general, American companies failed to defend or enhance their market position by joining forces with one another and cooperating with U.S. officials until they were forced to withdraw from Japan in December 1941.
