Description
The obsession of an art-crazed old man is in his hand-paintings! The world's largest collection of his paintings, never to be seen outside the museum. The world's first and long-awaited book publication! The world's first and long-awaited book!   In recent years, there has been a growing interest in Hokusai's paintings, in which he attempted to reach the "realm of the gods" until his death at the age of 90. This book is the world's first publication of this collection, which boasts the world's largest collection of Hokusai's paintings in terms of quality and quantity, but which has never been known in Japan due to the ironclad rule of "not to be shown outside the museum". The book contains about 100 masterpieces of "paintings" and "drawings" carefully selected from the collection. This groundbreaking book offers a glimpse into the secrets of Hokusai's brushwork through a composition that makes full use of partial explanations of his experimental brushstrokes, expressions, and attempts at subject matter as an exploration of self-expression. Included are more than 60 ukiyoe woodblock prints of the unfinished "Hyakunin Isshu Ubagae toki" (One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets) with line drawings so precise that even an engraver would be unable to reproduce them. Special Contribution : Shugo Asano Smithsonian Institution Freer Gallery of Art The Freer Gallery of Art is operated by the world-renowned Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., USA. The museum houses the Asia-related collection of Mr. Freer, a businessman. The museum boasts the world's largest collection of Hokusai Katsushika's 200-plus paintings, which are of the highest quality and quantity. The condition of the donation, that the works must not be taken out of the museum, has never been violated, and the collection has been called a "phantom collection. |

画狂老人の執念は肉筆画にあり!
100年の眠りから目を覚ます“門外不出の世界最大の肉筆コレクション” 世界初、待望の書籍化! !
近年、90歳で亡くなるまで「神の領域」に至らんと北斎が挑んだ「肉筆画」への注目が高まっています。
本書は、北斎の肉筆コレクションとして世界最大の質と量を誇りながら「門外不出」という鉄の掟のもと、日本でも知られることのなかった幻のコレクションをフリーア美術館の全面的協力により世界で初めて書籍化を実現したものです。
コレクションから「肉筆」と「素描」の名品約100点を厳選。自己表現の探求として、実験的筆跡と表現、対象への試みを、部分図説を駆使した構成により北斎の筆の秘密を堪能できる画期的一書です。
彫り師も再現不可能なほどの緻密な線描による未完の《百人一首姥がゑとき》浮世絵版下絵60余点収録。
