●内容简介——

对战争、不确定性和流离失所的探索启发了日本伟大的画家之一。

Sesson Shūkei（约1492-1577年）是日本艺术史上的一个异类。受日本东部荒野景观的启发，塞森一生经历了战争和动乱，因此他过着漫无目的的生活。然而，他创造了日本水墨画史上引人注目的一些形象。本书借鉴了对日本16世纪艺术史和社会学的新见解，探讨了战争、不确定性和流离失所如何催生不受约束的创造力。日本艺术领域主要学者的三篇论文探讨了塞森.什基独特的生活和非传统的绘画风格，以及随着时间的推移，学者对这位艺术家的看法发生了怎样的变化。其他作品突出了塞森的主要作品，以及其他艺术家在他任职之前、期间和之后的作品。这本书探索了理解和解释日本伟大的画家之一以及塑造他的世界的新方法。

An exploration of how war, uncertainty, and displacement inspired one of Japan’s greatest painters.

Sesson Shūkei (ca. 1492–ca. 1577) stands out as an anomaly in the history of Japanese art. Inspired by the wild landscape of the eastern regions of Japan, Sesson led a peripatetic existence caused by a lifetime of experiencing warfare and upheaval—yet he created some of the most visually striking images in the history of Japanese ink painting. Drawing on new art historical and sociological insights into Japan’s sixteenth century, this book considers how war, uncertainty, and displacement can spawn untamed creativity. Three essays by leading scholars in the field of Japanese art explore Sesson Shūkei’s unique life and unconventional painting style, as well as how scholarly perceptions of the artist have changed over time. Other entries highlight major works by Sesson as well as those by other artists before, during, and after his time. This publication explores new ways of understanding and interpreting one of Japan’s greatest painters and the world that shaped him.
