Product Description

A comprehensive English-language study of early twentieth-century Japanese modern art. It constructs a critical theory of artistic modernism in Japan between 1900 and 1930 by analyzing the work of Yorozu Tetsugoro whose paintings she casts as a polemic response to Japan's late-nineteenth-century encounter with European art.
