Join Asia Society Texas Center for a docent-led tour of the exhibition Tsuruya Kōkei: Modern Kabuki Prints Revised & Revisited.
Free for Members, $5 Students and Seniors, $8 Nonmembers
About Tsuruya Kōkei: Modern Kabuki Prints Revised & Revisited
The exhibition presents all of Tsuruya Kōkei's kabuki actor prints from 1984 to 1993. Because the artist limited his editions, such a complete collection represents a first in Texas. To explore the broader contours of kabuki actor prints, Kōkei's work is contextualized by actor prints by Sharaku, as well as two dozen additional works by contemporary Japanese and western artists.
