Art Talk Tuesday: Japanese Aesthetics

Join us on Tuesday, October 8 at 12pm for Japanese Aesthetics with the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco.

Kimono, netsuke, swords, lacquerware, screens, and scrolls: explore the variety, complexity, and beauty of traditional Japanese art forms. Artists working in these modes were held to an exacting standard: in addition to an object's functionality, it also had to be aesthetically pleasing while displaying the skill of the artisan, the taste of the patron, and the values of the culture. Luxuriate in this fascinating presentation highlighting some of the exquisite objects in the Japanese collection of the Asian Art Museum.
