A trove of primary source materials, From Postwar to Postmodern,
Art in Japan 1945-1989 is an invaluable scholarly resource for
readers who wish to explore the fascinating subject of avant-garde
art in postwar Japan. In this comprehensive anthology, an array of
key documents, artist manifestos, critical essays, and roundtable
discussions are translated into English for the first time. The
pieces cover a broad range of artistic mediums-including
photography, film, performance, architecture, and design-and
illuminate their various points of convergence in the Japanese
context. The collection is organized chronologically and
thematically to highlight significant movements, works, and
artistic phenomena, such as the pioneering artist collectives Gutai
and Hi Red Center, the influential photography periodical Provoke,
and the emergence of video art in the 1980s. Interspersed
throughout the volume are more than twenty newly commissioned texts
by contemporary scholars. Including Bert Winther-Tamaki on art and
the Occupation and Reiko Tomii on the Yomiuri Independent
Exhibition, these pieces supplement and provide a historical
framework for the primary source materials. From Postwar to
Postmodern, Art in Japan 1945-1989 offers an unprecedented look at
over four decades of Japanese art-both as it unfolded and as it is
seen from the perspective of the present day. Publication of The
Museum of Modern Art
