This new survey celebrates the lives and work of 44 Modern Japanese artists dating from the early 20th century to today, exploring printmaking in all its forms. Artists featured include Saitō Kiyoshi, who was influenced by European artists, especially Odilon Redon and Edvard Munch, along with Shinoda Tōkō who trained in traditional Japanese calligraphy but, in her own words, "decided to try my own style".
