Exhibition: Hokusai – Retrospective
Venue: Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin
Cooperation: Berliner Festspiele and Martin-Gropius-Bau; Japan Foundation (Tôkyô), Sumida Ward (Tôkyô); Nikkei Inc.
The Exhibition
For the first time in Germany a major retrospective is to be devoted to the world-famous Japanese artist Hokusai (1760–1849). Perhaps his best-known picture is the woodcut: “The Great Wave off Kanagawa” from the series: “Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji” (1823–29). Over 350 loans, which with few exceptions come from Japan, will be on display in the exhibition in Berlin’s Martin-Gropius-Bau. NAGATA Seiji, the leading Japanese authority on Hokusai and his work, will be curating the exhibition, which is to be seen exclusively in Berlin. Works from all periods of the artist’s career – woodcuts and drawings, illustrated books, and paintings – will be shown.
Continued
With special support by the Ishibashi Foundation and under the auspices of the Embassy of Japan. Organized as part of a series of events to mark “150 Years of German-Japanese Friendship”.
