UKIYO-E IN PLAY ＠ Tokyo National Museum (Ueno Park)
This exhibition features contemporary ukiyo-e, works emerging from collaborations between artists, designers, and creators from diverse fields who draw inspiration from the expressive power of traditional woodcut printing. Working alongside the carvers and printers of the Adachi Institute of Woodcut Prints, these artists take on the role of today’s eshi (artists who produced the original drawings for woodcut prints), reimagining the ukiyo-e tradition in a present-day context.
Through woodcut prints by 85 artists, we invite you to explore the potential of this time-honored art form as it evolves into the future.
