First Edition
1st edition. Fine title-blocked board copy in an equally fine dust-wrapper. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description; 216 p.: ill. (chiefly col.); 26 x 30 cm. Notes; "Published in conjunction with an exhibition presented under the same title at the Art Institute of Chicago from June 26 to September 27, 2009; and at the Saint Louis Art Museum as, Five centuries of Japanese screens: masterpieces from the Saint Louis Art Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago, from October 18, 2009 to January 3, 2010" -- T.p. verso. Includes English translations of artists' names and Japanese poems, and essay summaries in Japanese. Includes bibliographical references and index. Includes English translations of artists' names and Japanese poems, and essay summaries in Japanese. Summary; Folding screens, known as byobu in Japanese, are treasures within any museum's collection and are beloved by the general public. This beautiful publication brings together the very finest screens from the world-renowned collections of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Saint Louis Art Museum. The featured works range from an extraordinary pair of landscapes by Sesson Shukei, a Zen-Buddhist monk-painter of the late 16th century, to daring contemporary works from the late 20th century. The first half of the Edo period (1615--1868) is especially well represented, with a dozen screens from the 17th century by such masters as Kano Koi and Tosa Mitsuoki. The contemporary scene is also well covered, with ten examples from the 20th century--proving the longevity of this art form and its currency among modern-day artists. Enlightening essays by important scholars in the field cover topics like the emergence of screens as an art form and a novel discussion of the relationship of Japanese screens to those made in other countries.
