Tani Buncho: Commemorating the 250th Anniversary of his Birth

Tani Buncho:
Commemorating the 250th Anniversary of his Birth

July 3 to August 25 2013

*There will be an exhibition change during the course of exhibition

Tani Buncho, who was one of the preeminent practitioners of Kanto-region Nanga (literati painting), was influenced by the Shijo School, Tosa School and Western-style paintings, and thus created a wide variety of works. He was also one of the best connected of painters, counting the literati Kimura Kenkado among his acquaintances and Watanabe Kazan among his disciples. In this exhibition, we commemorate the 250th anniversary of Buncho’s birth with an examination of his painterly output and achievements that is structured around these many connections. Also, we exhibit all seven scrolls of Buncho’s Ishiyama-dera Engi Emaki Handscrolls, which were recently acquired by the museum. This will be the first time the work is exhibited since the completion of an extensive restoration.
