Sponsoring of the special exhibition “RINPA: The Aesthetics of the Capital”
October 2, 2015
Nissha Printing Co.,Ltd.
Nissha Printing Co., Ltd. is a cosponsor of the special exhibition “RINPA: The Aesthetics of the Capital” in Kyoto National Museum from October 10 to November 23, 2015.
2015 marks the 400th anniversary of the origins of Rinpa and nearly 300 years since the death of its eponymous artist Ogata Kōrin. Among the various anniversary celebrations taking place in Japan this year, the Kyoto National Museum's commemorative special exhibition is perhaps the ultimate presentation of this subject, tracing the transmission of the Rinpa aesthetic from its inception through the Edo period (1615–1868). Significantly, it is also the first major show of its kind to be held in the birthplace of Rinpa—the ancient capital of Kyoto.
