Exhibiting Meiji Art and Culture: Curatorial Perspectives

Celebrating JASA’s 50th Anniversary, this lecture features three curators who offer their perspectives on Meiji art and culture. The art of the Meiji era (1868-1912) was the first to be consciously collected as “contemporary Japanese art” in the United States. In this event, Takurō Tsunoda (curator at the Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Cultural History), in conversation with Bradley M. Bailey and Chelsea Foxwell (co-curators of the JASA 50th anniversary exhibition Meiji Modern: Fifty Years of New Japan currently on view at Asia Society New York), reflect on recent curatorial interpretations of the art and culture of the Meiji era. Following individual presentations on Meiji Modern and the exhibition The Development of Visual Culture in the Meiji Era recently held at the Aichi Prefectural Museum of Art in Nagoya, Professors Tsunoda, Bailey and Foxwell discuss their challenges, goals and future aspirations for exhibiting Meiji art.
