Title | Exhibition at the MET: Storytelling in Japanese Art |
Body | From http://www.metmuseum.org/exhibitions/listings/2011/storytelling-in-japanese-art Storytelling in Japanese Art November 19, 2011–May 6, 2012 Japan has a long and rich history of pairing narrative texts with elaborate illustrations—a tradition that continues to this day with manga and other popular forms of animation. Featuring more than sixty works of art in a range of mediums and formats, this exhibition invites you to explore myriad subjects that have preoccupied the Japanese imagination for centuries—Buddhist and Shinto miracle tales; the romantic adventures of legendary heroes and their feats at times of war; animals and fantastical creatures that cavort within the human realm; and the ghoulish antics of ghosts and monsters.
