Faculty Exhibition Workshop: The Artistry of Utagawa Kuniyoshi
Join staff to discuss ways of using the current exhibition The Artistry of Utagawa Kuniyoshi. Curator Wai Yee Chiong will share an overview of the exhibition, which highlights the work of one of the most influential Japanese printmakers of the 1800s, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797–1861). Works on view represent the range of Kuniyoshi’s work, from multi-volume novels known as gōkan and dynamic warrior prints to the caricatures and humorous illustrations he created during a time of strict censorship. Alexandra Poterack, director of academic programs, will facilitate discussion on building class visits and assignments around the exhibition.
