Last Chance
The celebrated exhibition, Fleeting Beauty: Japanese Woodblock Prints closes July 4 at the Seattle Asian Art Museum. If you’re in the Seattle-area and haven’t been to the show, which includes Hokusai’s Great Wave off Kanagawa, now is the time.
Marquand produced the exhibition catalogue, featuring prints from renowned ukiyo-e artists of the 18th and 19th centuries.
The Seattle Weekly offered praise:
Like Hokusai’s Great Wave, the floating world was dangerous: It was addicted to thrills (cheap or expensive), and its art was another momentary pleasure. Yet some of it lasted for centuries. Thanks to this fascinating, extraordinarily lovely, must-see show, Seattle will have the thrill for all time.
