Book Synopsis The Sketchbooks of Hiroshige by : Hiroshige Andō
Download or read book The Sketchbooks of Hiroshige written by Hiroshige Andō and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty charming pencil, ink, and watercolor drawings by a nineteenth-century master depict diverse but complementary aspects of Japanese art and imagination. Drawn from two rarely circulated, seldom-seen sketchbooks, these images include scenes from everyday life, rendered with expressive elegance, and episodes from classic folktales, portrayed with warm realism. Best known for his woodblock prints, Hiroshige (1797–1858) recaptured the magic of the Japanese landscape in the course of his travels throughout the country. These sketchbooks date from around 1840, when the artist was at the height of his talent and popularity. Their unique and intimate glimpses of Japan before it opened to the West—of courtesans in traditional costumes, peasants at work, serene landscapes, animals, and episodes from Kabuki drama—offer delightful souvenirs of the late Edo period and form an engaging, accessible introduction to the complex traditions of Japanese art.

Book Synopsis The Complete Woodblock Prints of Kitagawa Utamaro by : Gina Collia-Suzuki
Download or read book The Complete Woodblock Prints of Kitagawa Utamaro written by Gina Collia-Suzuki and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Reading Duncan Reading, thirteen scholars and poets examine, first, what and how the American poet Robert Duncan read and, perforce, what and how he wrote. Harold Bloom wrote of the searing anxiety of influence writers experience as they grapple with the burden of being original, but for Duncan this was another matter altogether. Indeed, according to Stephen Collis, "No other poet has so openly expressed his admiration for and gratitude toward his predecessors." Part one emphasizes Duncan's acts of reading, tracing a variety of his derivations--including Sarah Ehlers's demonstration of how Milton shaped Duncan's early poetic aspirations, Siobhán Scarry's unveiling of the many sources (including translation and correspondence) drawn into a single Duncan poem, and Clément Oudart's exploration of Duncan's use of "foreign words" to fashion "a language to which no one is native." In part two, the volume turns to examinations of poets who can be seen to in some way derive from Duncan--and so in turn reveals another angle of Duncan's derivative poetics. J. P. Craig traces Nathaniel MacKey's use of Duncan's "would-be shaman," Catherine Martin sees Duncan's influence in Susan Howe's "development of a poetics where the twin concepts of trespass and 'permission' hold comparable sway," and Ross Hair explores poet Ronald Johnson's "reading to steal." These and other essays collected here trace paths of poetic affiliation and affinity and hold them up as provocative possibilities in Duncan's own inexhaustible work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Admiral Perry broke through Japan's isolation in 1854, the current of Japanese trade flowed west again, bearing with it the colored woodcuts of Hokusai, Hiroshige, and their contemporaries. Some of the most avid collectors of these prints were the French Impressionists and Nabis, who found in them new ways to treat their own prints. In The Great Wave, Colta Feller Ives, Curator in Charge, Department of Prints and Photographs, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, recounts the phenomenal "cult of Japan" in late nineteenth-century France and reveals through direct comparisons its particular impact on the graphic work of Manet, Degas, Cassatt, Bonnard, Vuillard, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Gauguin.
