Описание книги «Hokusai»

Katsushika Hokusai (1769-1849) was one of the

greatest of the Japanese printmakers, painters and book illustrators. This richly illustrated monograph provides an overview of the master"s life and works. Comprising introductory essays, seven chapters embracing Hokusai"s entire career and some 700 illustrations, it presents

and analyses a large selection of Hokusai"s finest works in all media, covering his whole career and giving a scholarly and up-to-date interpretation of the artist and his significance.

Gian Carlo Calza is Professor of East Asian Art History at the University of Ca" Foscari, Venice, and Director of the International Hokusai Research Centre

in Milan. A distinguished authority on Hokusai and Japanese art, he has published many books, exhibition catalogues and articles on Hokusai, and is currently preparing a catalogue raisonnA? of Hokusai"s paintings.

In addition to Calza"s eight introductory essays and his catalogue of the artist"s works, the book includes discussions of various aspects of Hokusai"s art by inter-nationally respected authorities in the field, namely Roger S. Keyes, Visiting Professor in the History of Art at Brown University; Matthi Forrer, Curator at the National Museum of Ethnology, Leiden; John M. Rosen-field, Professor Emeritus of East Asian Art at Harvard University; Richard Lane, independent scholar; Asano Shugo, Curator of the Municipal Museum of Art, Chiba; Tsuji Nobuo, Rector of Tama University of Fine Arts, Tokyo; and Kobayashi Tadashi, Director of the Muni-cipal Museum of Art, Chiba, and Professor of East Asian Art History at the University Gakushuin of Tokyo.
