Description
- The first book to explore washi as a medium for contemporary art
- The book reveals the contemporary possibilities - as well as the time-honored essence - of a cultural tradition that has been deeply connected with art and life in Japan for more than a millennium

- The publication features photographs by Kyoko Ibe, one of the pioneers of contemporary washi that makes the traditional new
Historically, washi paper has been used as a base for Japanese calligraphy, painting, and printmaking as well as a material in architecture, religious ritual and clothing. In recent years, contemporary Japanese artists have turned this supple yet sturdy paper into a medium for expressing their artistic vision - layering, weaving, dyeing, shredding, folding, or cutting the paper to form abstract sculptures, lyrical folding screens, highly textured wall pieces, and dramatic installations. This elegantly designed volume examines the extraordinary creations of these diverse contemporary artists from Japan, France, and the United States. The publication also demonstrates the resilience, versatility, and unique stature of this ancient artistic medium in the realm of international contemporary art.
