Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. English text.; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 23.5 x 31.5 cm.; 2 Kg.; 333 pages with colour illustrations throughout. Used with signs of wear on the exterior of the dust jacket. Interior with minor sings of wear. Very good condition overall.; Catalogue from the exhibition Modern Masters of Kyoto: Nihonga from the Griffith and Patricia Way Collection, organized by the Seatlle Art Museum, held at Seattle Asian Art Museum, August 19, 1999 to February 13, 2000 and Los Angeles County Museum of Art, April 13 - July 31, 2000.; Modern Japanese painting executed in traditional media and formats, or nihonga, developed in the late nineteenth century as artists struggled to preserve cultural continuity in their art while searching for creative expressions to reflect Japan's new identity as a modern nation. In addition, the nihonga movement served to distinguish traditional art from Western-style oil painting. In the 1880s and following decades, as various national forums fro competitive exhibition developed, Tokyo and Kyoto emerged as strong artistic centers, each characterized by its own distinct historical and cultural background. Modern Masters of Kyoto presents more than eighty examples of Kyoto nohonga - hanging scrolls, screens, and an album - dating from 1860s to the 1940s. Featuring two exceptionally original artists, Tsuji Kako (1870-1931) and his pupil Tomita Keisen (1879-1936), the volume includes works by his predecessors, their contemporaries, and their successors. Collectively, their works demonstrate the evolution of Kyoto nihonga in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The book introduces Western readers to a range of Kyoto artists from the most famous to the talented but relatively unknown. Their often visually stunning paintings provide a window from which to glimpse both the past and modern in Japanese art. In the early development of nihonga, Kyoto artists incorporated some elements of Western art, but they were more anchored in tradition than artists in Tokyo. The Kyoto masters achieved true brilliance after the turn of the twentieth century. Inspired by the modern concept of individualism and influenced at times by knowledge of compemporary Western art, Kyoto nihonga artists in the Taisho period (1912-26) created strikingly diverse and original expressions with fresh subjects, a daring use of color, and experimental compositions.…
