The Artistic Journey of Japanese Woodblock Printing

Through December 4, David Alan Collection in the Cedros Design District presents “The Artistic Journey of Japanese Woodblock Printing: From Meticulous Craft to Miraculous Fine Art.” This special Ukiyo-e exhibit showcases the mastery and techniques of a historic Japanese art form, in which the talent and skills of the artist, wood carver, and print maker collaborated to create fine works of art said to have influenced 19th century European Impressionists. More than 50 prints of lovers, theatrically costumed actors, everyday home life, and rural landscapes will be on display from the celebrated 17th-19th century Edo era, as well as 20th century prints.
