A HISTORY OF THE JAPANESE PRINT

A HISTORY OF THE JAPANESE PRINT

Tiger Tanuki presents a unique sales exhibition, tracing the history of the Japanese print from the classic ukiyo-e of the Edo period (1615-1867) to the modern shin hanga and sosaku hangaprints of the 20th century.

The exhibition features original works by renowned artists such as Utagawa Kunisada, probably the most popular and prolific ukiyo-e artist; Kawase Hasui, considered one of the most important Japanese landscape artists of the 20th century, and Ay-O, also known as the ‘rainbow artist’, who represented Japan at the Venice biennale in 1966.
