Book Modern Japanese Prints   Statler

Download or read book Modern Japanese Prints Statler written by Oliver Statler and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring over 100 unique prints, Modern Japanese Prints is a testament to the continuity of Japanese art and creativity. By far the most vitally creative group of artists working in Japan today, modern print-makers are truly international in appeal. Although they owe much of their heritage to the famous ukiyoe techniques of the past, they depart from their forebears in at least two important respects. In the first place, whereas in the ancient ukiyoe tradition a print was the joint production of three men— the artist-designer, the artisan who carved the blocks, and the printer—these modern artists perform all these functions themselves, thus satisfying their demands for individual artistic expression at every step of the creative process. Another distinguishing feature of this artistic school is that its inspiration is derived neither solely from its own Japanese past nor solely from the West. This book carefully traces the history of the modern print movement through detailed discussions of the life and work of twenty-nine of its most noteworthy and representative artists. It describes vicissitudes which the movement has undergone and the high artistic ideals which have motivated its members in spite of public apathy and the hostility of the traditionalists.

Book Modern Impressions

    Book Details:
  • Author : Frank Lewis Chance
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2005
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book Modern Impressions written by Frank Lewis Chance and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exhibition assembles ... seventy-two post-World War II Japanese prints by thirty-six artists ... Together, the works provide a comprehensive view of a vital and ambitious printmaking movement, often referred to as sosaku hanga ... Most of the pieces in the exhibition are woodblock prints, but unlike traditional ukiyo-e, which were produced collaboratively by artists, artisans and publishers, the prints in this show were typically made by the artist working alone, with the goal of creating a more individualistic means of expression. The visual content of the prints ranges from figurative representation to pure abstraction, and stylistic influences can be seen from both Asian and non-Asian art.
