Serizawa: Master of Japanese Textile Design

Textile scholars Terry Satsuki Milhaupt and Amanda Mayer Stinchecum, contributors to the catalogue for Japan Society’s retrospective exhibition of the work of Serizawa Keisuke (1895-1984), discuss different facets of the artist’s creative career. Milhaupt explores Serizawa’s integration of designs from other cultural traditions, while Stinchecum examines the influence of Okinawan bingata stencil-dyed textiles on his work.  The first in a series of lectures jointly organized with the Japanese Art Society of America.

Moderated by exhibition curator and Japan Society Gallery Director Joe Earle.
