It is said that the Japanese concept of "Nihonga" became socially established after the Meiji period because Japanese interpreters translated this English term as "Nihonga." "Nihonga" emerged as a new form of expression through the encounter between traditional Japanese painting and Western painting. However, amidst the cultural chaos of Japan's formation as a modern nation, painters were compelled to confront the constant questions: What is modernity? What is the West? What is the nation? After World War II, theories predicting the demise of Nihonga circulated within the art world. However, through the efforts of contemporary Nihonga artists who aimed to transcend modern Nihonga and create "new Japanese painting," Nihonga advanced to a new stage. In the 21st-century art scene, where globalization accelerates, the dichotomy between the West and the East no longer holds meaning, and subjects, forms, and materials diversify, what possibilities does contemporary "Japanese painting" hold? This exhibition catalog and book revisits the expressive methods of painters who led modern "Japanese painting" during the Meiji, Taisho, and early Showa periods, as well as postwar Japanese painters like Yasushi Sugiyama. It also explores the diverse practices of contemporary artists pursuing "Japanese painting" and the future of Japanese painting, delving into its essence. 【Payment】 Please pay within 3 days after your purchase. 【Shipping】 Japan Post DHL Fedex Economy Shipping:No tracking Standard Shipping: With tracking 【Returns】 We accept returns within 30 days of purchase. ＜Return conditions＞ -Request for return within 30 days of purchase. -Return costs are borne by the Seller. -Please inquire before application. 【International Buyers – Please Note:】 Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges.
