SUMMARY:Virtual Tour of the Exhibition Meiji Modern: Fifty Years of New Japan
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThe latter half of the 19th century was a time of political upheaval\, imperial expansion\, economic transformation and social unrest worldwide. Japan saw the fall of the shogun’s government and the creation of a new\, modern monarchy under the Emperor Meiji (1868-1912). This presentation examines the art of this era as presented in an exciting exhibition currently on view at the Smart Museum of Art\, University of Chicago (through June 9\, 2024). Meiji Modern examines how time-honored artistic motifs such as the sea\, nature\, and supernatural beings were transformed with the introduction of new techniques\, materials\, and audiences. \nCLICK HERE for information on how you can view the exhibit at the Smart Museum of Art through June 9 \nAbout the Speaker\nChelsea Foxwell is Associate Professor of Art History\, East Asian Languages and Civilizations\, and the College at the University of Chicago and co-curator of Meiji Modern.
