Presented by Bradley Bailey, the Ting Tsung and Wei Fong Chao Curator of Asian Art
The world of the Japanese print was a thoroughly modern one—even by today’s standards. Encompassing advertisements, playbills, keepsakes, travel souvenirs, maps, calendars, news sources, and even “racy” pinups, Japanese woodblock prints provide a captivating and beautiful glimpse into more than 400 years of daily life, history, and culture.
This talk offers an educational and entertaining exploration of one of the world’s most influential and popular forms of art.
Drop in! Admission is free.
Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Meet in the American General Conference Room on the mezzanine level of the Beck Building.
