Additional information
This gallery talk will reframe the arts of early modern Japan's theater and entertainment districts - cities within cities where the restrictions and rules of daily life could be shed in what has been dubbed the "floating world." These images were some of the first to reach Europe and America, where they were often wildly misunderstood on both the conceptual and material level, with ongoing consequences that have been both productive and corrosive.
