New York, NY 10019

Katherine Martin will host a special private viewing of the Scholten Japanese Art Gallery's exhibition of prints by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892). There will be a gallery talk for JASA members on Monday, September 11th from 5:00-7:00 pm (with refreshments served after the talk). The gallery exhibition will display approximately 40 prints and will be on view from Thursday, September 7th through Friday, September 15th. The exhibition is a continuation of the gallery's March 2017 single-artist exhibition on Yoshitoshi, one of the last great ukiyo-e artists of the 19th century. Drawing from a collection assembled over a period of nearly ten years (and recently published in a full-color catalogue illustrating 180 woodblock prints), the September show will focus on the dynamic and tumultuous times in which Yoshitoshi lived as reflected in some of his more violent imagery.

Reservations are required. Space is limited to 15 members.
