Seller's Description:
VG-(minor shelf wear along edges and spine, previous owner's inscription inside front cover, all pages clear and intact) Gray illustrated stapled wraps with white lettering; 47 pp., bw illustrations. "Japan House Gallery presents this exhibition of Shiko Munakata's works on paper both as a tribute to one of modern Japan's important artists and, hopefully, as an opportunity for a new assessment of the art he so abundantly and enthusiastically produced. That he lived in the full tide of glory must invite comparison with another figure mightily celebrated in this time, Picasso. Though Picasso's fame was vaster and different from that of the Japanese, they yet had in common enviable success, overwhelming energy, and productivity of a high order throughout long lives. Munakata's medium, however, was not an international one. His work was patricular to the history of technique in one country, but this does not diminishe the accomplishment."-quoted from introduction.
