Japanese Printmaking

Hokusai

One Hundred Views of Mt. Fuji by the renowned Japanese artist Hokusai is a work of unending visual delight. Considered Hokusai's masterpiece, this series of images captures the simple, elegant shape of Mount Fuji from every angle japanese printmaking and in every context. With no more than delicate, engraved outlines japanese printmaking and flat washes of gray, Hokusai displays his consummate virtuosity as a draftsman, printmaker, japanese printmaking and compositional innovator. Seen behind hanging strips of cloth outside a dyer's shop, or through the close stems of swaying bamboo, Mt. Fuji takes on a variety of guises--at times majestic, ominous, japanese printmaking and even occasionally comic--to reflect its multiform meaning within Japanese culture.

Frankenthaler

Widely considered one of the most important contemporary artists, Helen Frankenthaler is internationally celebrated for her role in the development of Color Field painting japanese printmaking and for her exquisite color-saturated canvases. This publication is the first devoted to Frankenthaler`s woodcuts: a body of work that represents a singular achievement by an American painter. Published to coincide with an exhibition of these extraordinary prints, Helen Frankenthaler: The Woodcuts features all twenty-four editions of the woodcuts Frankenthaler has made to date. No artist working today has achieved such painterly results with woodcut, the oldest printmaking medium. And yet her woodcuts are never simply translations of painting into print. They are, above all, woodcuts, which acknowledge japanese printmaking and utilize the properties of the medium to great effect. In Frankenthaler`s prints, the wood`s grain carries color, japanese printmaking and the paper`s surface holds it. Beginning with the delicate East japanese printmaking and Beyond (1973), her first woodcut, japanese printmaking and concluding with the triptych Madame Butterfly (2000), the evolution of Frankenthaler`s woodcuts is traced. Also reproduced are paintings on wood for Madame Butterfly japanese printmaking and the Tales of Genji series (1998), inspired by Murasaki Shikibu`s classic narrative work japanese printmaking and the Japanese Ukiyo-e tradition. The working japanese printmaking and trial proofs that precede the final editions japanese printmaking and the monotype japanese printmaking and unique works that follow them are reproduced as well. The book also includes photographs of woodblocks japanese printmaking and progressive proofs that allow the reader to see the technical aspects of printmaking. 64 color illustrations.

This richly detailed survey shows how Japanese architecture, sculpture, scroll painting, drawing, printmaking, and calligraphy reflect developments in religion and politics, from the advent of Zen to the West.
