Perverse Japanese Art: From Zen Painting to Heta-uma

Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art
Finished

Artists

Kuniyoshi Utagawa, Jakuchu Itom Iemitsu Tokugawa, Shunsou Shouju, Ekaku Hakuin et al.
From medieval Zen paintings to contemporary heta-uma works, with a focus on the sense of “perversity” that appears from time to time in Japanese art history, approximately 100 works are introduced under themes such as “clumsiness,” “naivety,” “bitterness,” and “assumed innocence.” It is an exhibition that will enable the viewer to question common sense and transcend the commonplace.

Part I: July 17–Aug. 9; Part II: Aug. 11–Sept. 1 (some exhibits on view for one part only)
