Explore the auspicious theme of kotobuki, or “celebration,” through an inspired selection of paintings, calligraphy, surimono, textiles, ceramics, and baskets dating from the 12th-21st centuries. Curated by Dr. Miyeko Murase, Takeo and Itsuko Atsumi Professor Emerita of Japanese Art History at Columbia University, this joyful exhibition offers a unique opportunity to view important but rarely displayed works from significant private collections in the New York City area.
