Paris in Japan: The Japanese Encounter with European Painting
Author: Shuji Takashina and J. Thomas Rimer with Gerald D. Bolas.
Publisher: Washington University
USD $20.00
Issued in conjunction with several exhibitions held from 1987 to 1988, this catalogue includes texts by Shuji Takashina, J. Thomas Rimer, and Gerald D. Bolas. As described by Design Books: “This catalogue was prepared to accompany the touring exhibition, first shown at the Washington University Art Gallery in Missouri. The exhibition explores a seldom-discussed aspect of the relationship between Japanese and European art: the influence of European art, specifically French painting, on generations of Japanese painters who exhibited their work from the 1890s through the 1930s. Many books consider the effect of Japanese art on the West, but this is the only one we know of that explores the influence of French painters on early modernist painters in Japan.”
