JAPONISME: The Influence of Japanese Prints in Western Modern Art

This online session will  look briefly at the historical context in which Japanese prints arrived in Europe in the 1850’s, before looking in greater detail at the influence they had on Modern Art movements. With their simple lines, flattened perspective and unusual colour juxtapositions, the eastern reproductions began to play an important role in the development of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism styles.

Throughout the lecture, examples of western modernist art will be juxtaposed with Japanese prints to demonstrate the way European artists adopted and interpreted Japanese aesthetics.

Artists featured include Monet, Manet, van Gogh, Gauguin, Whistler, Cassatt, Klimt among others.

Admission: SGD 15

Date: 29 November, 5pm – 9.30pm
The Session will be recorded and encored for registered participants on Dec 1st, 8pm.

When: 29 Nov - 1 Dec 2020,
