Lecture: "Edo Ukiyo-e Viewed from Kamigata"

About this event

At the lecture "Edo Ukiyo-e Viewed from Kamigata" held at Ashiya City Museum of Art & History, Hiroko Kitagawa (part-time lecturer at Kansai University), a leading authority on ukiyo-e historical research, will serve as the lecturer. This lecture is positioned as a related event to the ongoing exhibition "Enjoying Landscape Prints of Ukiyo-e: Hiroshige + Hokusai." From the unique perspective of Edo ukiyo-e seen from Kamigata, the lecture is expected to explore the painting characteristics, manners, and customs of the time, as well as the cultural exchanges between Kamigata and Edo. Through the lecturer's expert insights, it will be a valuable opportunity to discover the profound charm of ukiyo-e that is often overlooked. The venue is the lecture room of Ashiya City Museum of Art & History, with a capacity of 60 people. Participation is free, but an exhibition admission ticket is required. No registration is required; please come directly to the venue.
