Details

This comprehensive reference covers every major art movement to land on Japan’s shores in the first half of the 20th century. The book contains works that illustrate Japanese reworkings of Art Nouveau, Impressionism, Expressionism, DADA, Futurism, Constructivism, Cubism, Surrealism, and elements of Bauhaus design and aesthetics.

Yes, this reference is that comprehensive, and the catalogue is illustrated lavishly with nearly 300 images. Of particular interest are the early prints featured by Onchi, Fujimori, Yorozu, and the DADA group MAVO. The titles of each work are provided in English, and the essays are in Japanese and German.
