TAB Event - "Ukiyo-e Modern"

"Ukiyo-e Modern"

This event has ended.
At Machida City Museum of Graphic Arts
Media: Prints

This exhibition is a showcase of the extravagance of 'modern ukiyoe', a fusion of ukiyoe and woodcut printing.
From the Taisho Period to the early Showa Period, many ukiyoe works of scenery, women, and popular actors of the time were created and published. They faded away in the rush of modernization, but reemerged at the end of the Meiji Era when Edo culture gained attention. At the same time, woodcut printing was being recognized as an art form, and 'ukiyoe modern' was born.
On November 3rd (Culture Day), entrance is free.
