“Japanese Prints: Hokusai at LACMA” is on view through July 28 at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s Pavilion for Japanese Art, 5905 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles.
The museum’s collection includes excellent prints by the renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). Among the museum’s holdings are two of his most iconic works, popularly known as “Red Fuji” and “The Great Wave.”
A recent gift from Max Palevsky added to the museum’s collection a complete set of the eight prints from Hokusai’s legendary series “A Tour of Waterfalls in the Provinces”:
? “The Yoshitsune Horse-Washing Falls at Yoshino, Izumi Province”
??“Rōben Falls at Mt. Oyama, Sagami Province”
? “Falls of Kirifuri at Mt. Kurokami, Shimotsuke Province”
? “Yōrō Falls in Mino Province”
? “Kannon Shrine at Kiyo Falls, Sakanoshita, Tokaido”
? “Falls of Aoigaoka in the Eastern Capital”
? “Falls of Ono on the Kisokaidō”
? “Amida Falls on the Kiso Highway”
In addition to these color woodblock prints, the current exhibition also features pages from woodblock printed books as well as preparatory drawings. Loans from the Barbara Bowman Collection include several surimono— commissioned prints made for specific occasions that typically employ special techniques or materials.
This exhibition was made possible through the recent gift by Palevsky and through generous loans from the Barbara Bowman Collection.
