ukiyo‑e japan: calligraphy, kimono + samurai

The jour­ney through sev­en sec­tions me­an­ders be­tween the per­sua­sive fem­i­nine world of the geisha and the leg­end of the faith­ful samu­rai war­riors. The cul­tur­al world is im­mor­tal­ized in por­traits of ac­tors and scenes from nō and kabu­ki the­ater, and the world of na­ture is ide­al­ized through paint­ings of flow­ers, birds and landscapes.”
Geisha Samu­rai: Memòries del Japó

From the deep-root­ed in­ter­est in man­ga to the pro­found in­flu­ences of ori­en­tal art in Eu­rope, with a spe­cial em­pha­sis on mod­ernism in Barcelona it­self, this ex­hi­bi­tion is a vi­brant trib­ute to the di­ver­si­ty and cul­tur­al rich­ness of Japan.”
Met­ro­pol­i­tan Barcelona

The Japan­ese do not hear progress with­out lis­ten­ing to where it came from.”
Fer­ran López Ala­gar­da, curator
 


 

Last week, I vis­it­ed an amaz­ing new ex­hi­bi­tion ded­i­cat­ed to Japan­ese tra­di­tion­al art and at­tire at Palau Mar­torell in Barcelona.


 

It was a great plea­sure to see such unique and colour­ful pieces.


 

I re­al­ly hope to trav­el to Japan and see more of this beauty.
 

Thank you to Kos­tiantyn Churikov for great com­pa­ny and the pret­ty pictures.
