For example, the Japanese are commonly thought to be aggressive and passive, arrogant and humble, materialistic and ascetic, boorish and polite, xenophobic and hospitable, westernised and inscrutably oriental. Such dualisms do in fact reflect very real aspects of Japanese society and its mentality. But their place in the overall framework is little understood, since Japan has remained remote from the West culturally as well as geographically. To help remedy this, an exhibition held at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, in 1980 aimed at providing an experience of Japanese objects in their social and cultural context. This, the book that complemented the exhibition, gives a taste of the complexity of Japanese life and reveals the variety of its material culture. The latest trends in Japan are influenced by tradition, while tradition in turn is often modified by the avant-garde. For the Japanese have developed a life-style that is a synthesis of dualities, whose uniqueness merits the designation Japan Style. / CONTENTS Essays Japan Materials Elegance Simplicity Compactness Graphism Vitality Today Captions.
