    The life of Hokusai: Japan’s visionary artist of Ukiyo-e

    December 3, 2024 / 0 Comments

    Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849), one of Japan’s most celebrated artists, is best known for his iconic woodblock print The Great Wave off Kanagawa. Constantly reinventing himself, Hokusai pursued artistic excellence well into his later years, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire and influence artists worldwide.

    Hokusai – Les artiste japonais les plus reconnus internationalement, un maître de l’art Ukiyo-e

    January 14, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Son style et ses sujets ont évolué aussi souvent que son nom, mais le talent d’Hokusai en tant qu’artiste est resté le même, et son influence dans des mouvements postérieurs tel que l’Art Nouveau et l’impressionnisme est incontestable.

    Hokusai – Japans international bekannteste Künstler, ein Meister der Ukiyo-e-Kunst

    January 13, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Der Stil und die Gegenstände in seiner Kunst entwickelten sich so oft weiter, wie er seinen Namen änderte. Aber Hokusais künstlerisches Talent blieb beständig, und er hatte eine einflussreiche Rolle auf spätere Kunstrichtungen wie den Jugendstil und den Impressionismus.

    Hokusai – Japan’s most internationally-renowned artist, a master of Ukiyo-e art

    January 11, 2022 / 0 Comments

    His style of art and subject evolved as many times as he changed his name, but Hokusai’s talent as an artist remained constant and his influential role in later art movements such as Art Nouveau and Impressionism remains eternal.

    „Urgrosspapa!?“, rief Maja. Katsushika Hokusai schwieg.

    Früher war alles besser. Vor allem die Kinderserien. Auf Mila Superstar oder die Kickers lasse ich nichts kommen. Sie stammten aus Japan, das wusste ich, denn Sie hielten damit ja nicht eben hinter dem Berg. Mila zum Beispiel lachte wie die Sonne darüber. Mir hat aber nie jemand gesagt, dass Die Biene Maja ebenso aus Japan kam! Regisseur war, auf Betreiben progressiver Kräfte im ZDF (!!!), ein gewisser Hiroshi Saitō. Das beweist: Japan ist längst zum essentiellen Bestandteil westlicher Vorstellungswelten geworden. Das war nicht immer so. Genau genommen begann alles im 19. Jahrhundert. Und die Frage ist berechtigt: Hätte es die Biene Maja, unsere Biene Maja mit den Kulleraugen und…

    The Japanese art world, the flesh, the devil

    June 14, 2016 / 0 Comments

    Modern art has always been widely discussed. We all know some people who claim they could have done the same (maybe even you said it; the Tate saved you their best wall). There are also those who get their kicks out of an abandoned pair of glasses sitting on the ground. This debate being nowhere near its end, let’s just agree to never agree and mutually concede one simple thing: in the contemporary art world, Japan is a UFO. For all the Jeff Koonses and Damien Hirsts on the artsy planet, for all the prattle and tattle that come with their kind, none came closer, and with such a truly…
