Folding Screen Paintings from the Museum Collection
This event has ended.
At Hiratsuka Museum of Art
Media: Painting, Other
The folding screen has been a useful tool for partitioning space, as it is easy to move and to store; depending on where you put it, it can have different effects on a space. The art of painting on folding screens began in the Han Period in China, before being adopted in Japan during the Nara Period, developing into an integral feature of palatial and monastic life during the Heian Period.
This exhibition presents approximately 15 screens.
