Art of the East - Japan

“What you imagine, you create.” - Siddhartha Gautama

Join Luca Pietrosanti, art historian extraordinaire + friends on a journey eastward from the shores of the west to the islands of Japan.

The Art of the East - Japan Zoom tour curriculum is under development. This tour will establish a foundation of understanding of how the exchange of ideas, techniques and materials between Japan and the West, influenced artists on both sides of the world.

In Week 4, with Japanese aesthetic principals in mind, Luca takes us on the final leg of our adventure into Art of Asia - Japan. We’ll explore ukiyo-e, pictures of the floating, sorrowful world. Don’t despair, the essence of beauty is there.

After gaining an initial understanding of one Eastern art history perspective, we can travel virtually and in real life together through Art Around the World - Japan.
