Utamaro and the Spectacle of Beauty Hardcover – 2008年 2月 5日

作者 Julie Nelson Davis (Author)

One of the most influential artists working in the genre of ukiyo-e ("pictures of the floating world") in late-eighteenth-century Japan, Kitagawa Utamaro (1753?–1806) was widely appreciated for his prints of beautiful women. In images showing courtesans, geisha, housewives, and others, Utamaro made the practice of distinguishing social types into a connoisseurial art. In 1804, at the height of his success, Utamaro, along with several colleagues, was manacled and put under house arrest for fifty days for making prints of the military ruler Toyotomi Hideyoshi enjoying the pleasures of the "floating world." The event put into stark relief the challenge that popular representation posed to political authority and, according to some sources, may have precipitated Utamaro’s sudden decline.

In this book Julie Nelson Davis makes a close study of selected print sets, and by drawing on a wide range of period sources reinterprets Utamaro in the context of his times. Reconstructing the place of the ukiyo-e artist within the world of the commercial print market, she demonstrates how Utamaro’s images participated in the economies of entertainment and desire in the city of Edo (modern-day Tokyo).

Offering a new approach to issues of the status of the artist and the construction of identity, gender, sexuality, and celebrity in the Edo period, Utamaro and the Spectacle of Beauty is a significant contribution to the field and a key work for readers interested in Japanese art and culture.

Where did the world's top business leaders get their supply of rose-tinted spectacles? A whopping 96% of them are either very or reasonably confident in the outlook for their companies over the next 24 months, according to a survey of 1,000 company chiefs world-wide carried out by lawyers Allen & Overy. That seems to run counter to other signs companies are hoarding cash amid a period of global economic turbulence, after the U.S.'s debt downgrade and the euro-zone crisis.
