Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Calouste Gulbenkian amassed a remarkable collection of Japanese art. This lesser known facet of the collector's activity was explored in the exhibition Floating world: 'ukiyo-e' Japanese prints, which presented a large number of Japanese prints produced between the 17th and 19th centuries that belong entirely to the Museum's collection. The exhibition focused on the concept of ukiyo, which means 'floating world' and refers to the fleeting pleasures of everyday life. The catalogue is divided into two parts. The first is a set of four essays, including three by the exhibition curators. In the first text, Jorge Rodrigues explores the set of prints acquired by Calouste Gulbenkian for his collection. Francesca Neglia then looks at two of the most popular iconographic themes in ukiyo-e: the figure of the courtesan and landscapes. In the third essay, Hannah Sigur discusses the literary network associated with ukiyo-e. Finally, Rui Xavier, Preventive Conservation Coordinator at the Gulbenkian Museum and curator of the Gulbenkian Collection's lacquerware, writes about the damage sustained by the collection of Japanese prints after the 1967 Lisbon's floods and the remarkable restoration process that followed. The second part of the publication is similar in structure to the accompanying exhibition sections and includes texts on specific works or groups of works. The first chapter, 'Different views of nature and landscape', deals with landscape painting as an autonomous genre of ukiyo-e; in 'Uki-e': perspective images, the focus is on uki-e, a genre of prints made by adopting Western geometric perspective; Yoshiwara's 'floating world' revolves around the authorised leisure district of Edo (present-day Tokyo) and its influence on the production of prints depicting women; 'Ukiyo-e's literary web' deals with the unique and contradictory relationship between scholarly literature and poetry and the main protagonists in the 'floating world', such as kabuki theatre actors and the so-called 'women for play'; finally, 'The Tokaido Stations' covers the famous print series of the same name, comprising prints on various themes related to the Tokaido route, which ran from Edo to the imperial city of Kyoto. AUTHORS: Jorge Rodrigues has a doctorate in History of Art from the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences Universidade Nova de Lisboa; lecturer in History of Art at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa from 1993 to 2017, and was the former curator of Ancient, Medieval (Islamic and European) and Armenian Art and Japanese prints at the Gulbenkian Museum. He curated various History of Art exhibitions at the Gulbenkian Foundation and Museum as, for example the exhibition Floating world: 'ukiyo-e' Japanese Prints in 2023. Rui Xavier graduated in Interior Architecture from ESAD Escola Superior de Artes e Design; he followed this with post-graduate studies in Conservation/Museology at the Universidade Lusofona, Lisbon and post-graduate and master's studies in Museology at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa. He is a specialist in Conservation and Restoration of lacquer objects, having trained at the British Museum, the coordinator in the area of Preventive Conservation at the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum and curator of the Far Eastern lacquer collection and Japanese Prints at the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum.
