    edited by Yukiko Shirahara
  • Publication Details

    Book, Seattle Art Museum, 2007
  • Description

    This extraordinary book features significant works of art from the Kobe City Museum, whose collection focuses on Western-style Japanese art created between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. When the Tokugawa Shogunate Yoshimune relaxed restrictions on imported Western books in 1720, with the exception of Christian books, scholarly artists and scientists were free to study them, leading to Komo, Japanese art created under the influence of Holland, and to more popular paintings, prints, and decorative arts that demonstrate the fusion of Japanese and Western styles.

  • Publication Details

    Book, Seattle Art Museum in association with Lund Humphries, 2002
  • Description

    The authors draw on personal memories, interviews, and oral narratives to present twelve “case histories” of objects–or clusters of objects–in the Seattle Art Museum’s renowned collection of African art. A curator dedicated to telling the stories behind such art, Pamela McClusky explores subjects ranging from royal art of the Kom and Asante kingdoms, masquerades from the Yoruba, Dan, and Mende cultures, hunters’ shirts from the Mande empire, sculpture from the Kongo kingdom, Mercedes-Benz coffins from the streets of Ghana, photographs from Mali, and Maasai body ornaments.
