Many people think that traditional Japanese art is more difficult to approach, harder to understand, and more conservative than Western art. To make Japanese art more accessible, the Nezu Museum has planned an exhibition explaining the subject matter of Japanese paintings as the fourth in its Introduction to Traditional Art series.
In presenting the many themes addressed in Japanese paintings and their changes over time, this exhibition focuses principally on ink paintings. At first glance, some of these paintings may seem difficult to understand, but gaining a grasp of their meanings will connect to a deeper appreciation of traditional works of art.
