SUMMARY:In the Shadow of Empire: Art in Occupied Japan
DESCRIPTION:This talk unearths an immensely creative yet almost entirely overlooked body of Japanese art. Drawn from Volk’s recently published In the Shadow of Empire: Art in Occupied Japan\, and introducing charismatic but little-known paitnings\, prints\, and sculpture made during the US occupation (1945-1952). It will show how the forgotten art of a country in the shadows of American empire both accommodated and resisted the Cold War global realignment that followed on the heels of World War II. Volk will reveal the transnational dimensions of early postwar Japanese artistic practices and show how they hold the potential for rethinking our histories of Japanese and global postware are alike. \nPreregistration required.
