内容简介

骷髅、恶魔和鬼魂与经典的浮世绘宫女擦肩而过

日本艺术家河锅晓斋（1831-89）因其在书法和绘画聚会上激动人心的即兴绘画表演而闻名。英国学者蒂莫西-克拉克（Timothy Clark）将其描述为 "一个个人主义者和独立的人，也许是日本传统绘画的最后一位大师"，京斋见证了日本从一个封建国家转变为一个现代国家。他所处的政治动荡的时代反映在他暴乱的图像中，其中的骷髅、恶魔和鬼魂与古典渲染的浮世绘宫女擦肩而过。

在他最有魅力和创造力的作品中，包括他对动物--乌鸦、青蛙和大象等--的精彩描绘，这些动物往往代表着当时的政治人物。几十年来，京西一直被忽视，特别是与他早期的同行北斋和广重相比，现在他因能够将流行文化和传统艺术联系起来而受到赞誉。他在日本艺术中的重要地位在这里由Koto Sadamura深入探讨，他是这位艺术家的权威，在这个目录中，Israel Goldman收藏品异常丰富，是好的京赛收藏之一。

Skeletons, demons and ghosts rub shoulders with classically rendered ukiyo-e courtesans

The Japanese artist Kawanabe Kyosai (1831–89) was celebrated for his exciting impromptu painting performances at calligraphy and painting parties. Described by British scholar Timothy Clark as “an individualist and an independent, perhaps the last virtuoso in traditional Japanese painting," Kyosai saw Japan transform itself from a feudal country into a modern state. The politically turbulent times in which he lived are reflected in his riotous images, in which skeletons, demons and ghosts rub shoulders with classically rendered ukiyo-e courtesans.

Among his most charming and inventive works are his brilliant depictions of animals―crows, frogs and elephants, among many others―which often stand in for political figures of the day. Overlooked for decades, particularly compared to his earlier counterparts Hokusai and Hiroshige, Kyosai is now celebrated for his ability to bridge popular culture and traditional art. His important place in the art of Japan is here explored in depth by Koto Sadamura, a leading authority on the artist, in this catalog of the exceptionally rich holdings of the Israel Goldman Collection, one of the finest Kyosai collections in the world.
