A companion to a 2005 exhibition at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, this beautiful and informative catalog focuses on a singular era in the history of Japanese painting: the last half of the 18th century, which witnessed an unprecedented diversity in individual artistic expression. In their knowledgeable discussions of individual artists and 18th-century Kyoto culture, experts in Japanese art and history contextualize the delicate and often ethereal paintings reproduced in the volume.

English text.; Paperback.; 23 x 30.5 cm.; 1.1 Kg.; 208 pages with colour illustrations throughout.; Used with signs of wear on the exterior and interior. Good condition overall.; Catalogue from the exhibtion Traditions Unbound : Groundbreaking Painters of Eighteenth-Century Kyoto organized by the Asian Art Museum, The Agency for Cultural Affairs of Japan and the Kyoto National Museum, and presented at the Asian Art Museum-Chong-Moon Lee Center for Asian Art and Culture, December 3, 2005-February 26, 2006.; "Traditions Unbound focuses on a singular era in the history of Japanese painting: the half-century between around 1750 to 1800 that witness an unprecedented diversity in individual artistic expression. At no time prior to the eighteenth century did such a remarkable group of artists emerge in Japan; that the painters included in this exhibition were wither born in or pursued careers in Kyoto attests to that city's enduring cultural and economic force even a century after its political role was transferred to the new city of Edo. With sixty-one paintings on a variety of formats as a guide, this exhibition explores the distinctive personalities, biographical circumstances, and creative output of eight artists, and ultimately poses the question of why it was Kyoto in the eighteenth century that cultivate such an efflorescence of painting. The eight painters included in Traditions Unbound - Watanabe Shiko, Ike Taiga, Yosa Buson, Maruyama Okyo, Goshun, Nagasawa Rosetsu, Soga Shohaku, and Ito Jakuchu - were selected for the expressive strength and originality of their works, and for their pivotal roles as the progenitors of prevailing movements in late Edo-period painting.
