exhibition
Presentation of original Japanese prints from the Georges Leskowicz Collection, featuring works by Utamaro, Choki, Eishi, Shucho, Hokusai, Toyokuni, and Hiroshige, along with the artistic work of Makiko Furuichi.
The Edo period (1603-1868) is a significant era in Japanese history, marked by peace and economic prosperity which influenced the arts. This period saw a significant rise in Japanese prints, known for portraying women embodying elegance, learning, and an ideal contemporary beauty. These prints reflect a codified society and the societal modernity of that time, and they continue to influence today’s art.
The exhibition also highlights the work of contemporary Japanese artist Makiko Furuichi, whose textile installations and watercolors subtly echo the feminine representations of ukiyo-e masters, contrasting with traditional kimono motifs.
This exhibition celebrates Japanese art, inviting the contemplation of subtle and refined beauty.
