Fashion in Japan 1945 - 2020
・
A comprehensive overview of Japanese fashion history from the end of Second World War (1945) to 2020.
・
Designers, kawaii, cosplay everything to know about the history of postwar Japanese fashion.
・
Since the 1970s Japanese fashion has continued to surprise with its unique trajectory. From the emergence of internationally active designers in that decade to kawaii youth culture, Gothic Lolita and other street fashions, and more, here’s a full guide to Japanese fashion postwar to present, starting with a look further back at the social contexts and trends from the late nineteenth century that prepared the way for today’s vibrant proliferation. Garments, photographs, periodicals, video images, and other sources richly explicate the fashions of each era from the perspectives of the creators and consumers of clothing trends as well as of the media serving as their go-between.

Introduction of Ai Iwane’s title "KIPUKA" published in 2018.

For decades, the photographer Ai Iwane has been fascinated by the song “Fukushima Ondo” based on the Hawaiian Bon Dance, especially the Fukushima “Soma Bonka” that was devastated by the 2011 earthquake, disaster. This is a picture of Bon Odori dances in Hawaii in 2006 and in Fukushima in 2011. The vision of these dancers moving their bodies in the shadows of nature's overwhelming dignity proves a vibrant connection between the past and present, and the dignity and strength of human life, Remind me of the essence.

Due to its popular appeal and caricaturish, satirical content, yōkai-ga (literally, pictures of monstrous creatures – yōkai) have been treated as a minor current within Japanese art history. Enjoyed by the common people of Japan since ancient times, yōkai-ga have been valued also for their intimate associations with the nature beliefs and folk traditions that are the native culture and religion of Japan. This publishing project is reconsidering the lineage of yōkai-ga in order to offer a fresh look at the distinctive aspects of comicality and humor in Japanese art.

My First Lizzi
Design of Felice [Lizzi] Rix Ueno
・
Felice [Lizzi] Rix-Ueno's Design Fantasy - An introductory book to learn about the dazzling design of Lizzi Ueno, a designer who was born in Vienna and came to Kyoto in 1926.
・
Felice “Lizzi” Rix-Ueno (1893–1967) was known for the vibrant works of design she produced from her bases in Vienna, where she was born, and in Kyoto, where she settled after marriage. This collection looks back at her fantastical oeuvre, from wallpaper and wall decorations to cloisonné, textiles, and accessories. Inspiring essay contributions by women who have forged their own expressive path—like Lizzi—in their chosen fields of art, literature, and design add further dimension to the exploration of her appeal.
