Golden Years of Ukiyoe —Sharaku, Utamaro, and Tsutaya Juzaburo—

Takashima Ohisa by Kitagawa Utamaro

Special Display

Golden Years of Ukiyoe —Sharaku, Utamaro, and Tsutaya Juzaburo—

Apr. 13 (Sun.), 2025 – June 8 (Sun.)

The golden years of ukiyoe are considered to be in the period covering the late 18th to early 19th centuries. This was the time when Tsutaya Juzaburo was playing a leading role in shaping the publishing industry in Edo. He had an extraordinary gift for discovering talented ukiyoe artists, like Toshusai Sharaku and Kitagawa Utamaro, helping them and their woodblock print portraits of kabuki actors and beautiful women gain widespread acclaim. Juzaburo, Sharaku, and Utamaro are especially well known for their huge success in popularizing okubi-e, ukiyoe prints that dynamically depict the subject’s head and upper torso. This exhibition traces the timeline from the birth of ukiyoe to the era of Sharaku and Utamaro. Immerse yourself in the amazing world of multi-colored ukiyoe works that dazzled the people of Europe when they were revealed at the International Exposition in Paris at that time.

常設展

上方ブロマイド ―役者絵と美人画―

令和7年11月30日（日）〜令和8年1月25日（日）

蔦屋重三郎が活躍した時代から少し遅れて、上方（京・大坂）でも役者絵が盛んに制作されるようになりました。蔦屋重三郎に試練を与えた出版統制を含む改革によって、江戸では豪華な浮世絵制作が難しくなる中で、上方では通常の浮世絵とともに金や銀を用いた豪華版の浮世絵も作られ続けました。役者絵と美人画は、今でいうブロマイドともいえる役割をもち、当時上方で活躍していた歌舞伎役者や人気の遊女たちを取り上げ、販売されていました。上方をわかせていた人気者たちの晴れ姿を色鮮やかな浮世絵版画でご覧ください。

江戸のポップ・カルチャー「浮世絵」 ―江戸から現代へ―
常設展

江戸のポップ・カルチャー「浮世絵」 ―江戸から現代へ―

令和7年2月8日（日）〜3月22日（日）

浮世絵は江戸時代の庶民たちにとって手軽に楽しむことができる娯楽でした。ブロマイドの役割を果たした役者絵や美人画、風景写真の代わりとなった風景画、武人伝や合戦期の世界を表現した武者絵など庶民の欲求に敏感だった浮世絵は、視覚に訴え興味をそそる現代のポップカルチャーに通じています。新規性や奇抜さを備えた本や浮世絵を出版し時代の流れを作りだした蔦屋重三郎の業績は、写楽や歌麿を追いかけた絵師たちによって表現を変えながら受け継がれていきました。歌川国芳の戯画や武者絵、広重の風景画、三代歌川豊国の役者絵などで展覧会を構成し、それぞれの絵師たちが得意としたジャンルの浮世絵の中に見出せる現代に通じる"ポップ"（目新しさ、広く愛される）な世界をたどります。しりあがり寿「ちょっと可笑しなほぼ三十六景 むずかしいグリーン」も展示します。

Special Exhibition

Over The Waves —Nanban, Exposition, and Japonism—

Sep. 7 (Sun.), 2025 – Nov. 3 (Mon. /Holiday)

Commemorating the EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, this exhibition explores how the art worlds of Japan and Europe have influenced each other over time through artworks and related resources, focusing on cultural exchanges between the East and the West. It covers the Nanban era from the late 16th to early 17th centuries when Japan began importing Western culture, as well as the later Sakoku (national isolation) era during the Edo Period when Japanese people became curious about and fascinated by European culture. Years after the era of Tsutaya Juzaburo, as featured in the special exhibition in this museum, ukiyoe woodblock prints, such as Hokusai Manga by Katsushika Hokusai, were a sensation at the second Paris International Exposition. This was the first exposition in which Japan officially participated. The exhibition also delves into the era when Japonism became a cultural movement in Europe following the expo, when artists, like Monet and Lautrec, were so obviously captivated by Japanese art. (The exhibition will be held both in the Main Building and Annex.)

Regular Exhibition

Kamigata Pin-ups —Portraits of Actors and Beautiful Women—

Nov. 30 (Sun.), 2025 – Jan. 25 (Sun.), 2026

Years after Tsutaya Juzaburo found success in the art world, ukiyoe prints depicting actors were almost mass-produced in Kamigata (Kyoto and Osaka). At that time in Edo (Tokyo), political reforms were being implemented, including strict censorship of opulent publications, which posed a serious challenge to Juzaburo. Meanwhile, in Kamigata, even more luxurious versions of ukiyoe, using gold and silver, continued to be produced. Ukiyoe portraits of local kabuki actors and beautiful women, actually popular courtesans, were sold to fans much like modern-day pin-ups of celebrities. In this exhibition, you can encounter the celebrities of that time through vivid-colored ukiyoe prints.

Regular Exhibition

Edo Pop Culture Ukiyoe —From Edo to the Present—

Feb. 8 (Sun.), 2026 – Mar. 22 (Sun.)

Ukiyoe was a popular and accessible form of entertainment among the general population during the Edo Period. Portraits of actors and beautiful women were received and collected by fans much like modern-day celebrity pin-ups today. Landscapes were enjoyed in a way similar to how we now appreciate photographs, and military prints were admired for their depiction of legendary warriors and battles. This art form catered perfectly to the demands of the time and shares similar aspects with today’s pop culture, as it was visually interesting and intriguing. Tsutaya Juzaburo was a pivotal figure in the development of ukiyoe, as he helped shape the trend by publishing innovative and unique books and prints. His influence was carried on by artists who emulated the style of masters, like Sharaku and Utamaro. This exhibition will feature various types of ukiyoe, including caricatures and warrior prints by Utagawa Kuniyoshi, landscapes by Hiroshige, and actor portraits by Utagawa Toyokuni III. It is designed to explore the fresh and captivating “pop” elements to be found in the works of these artists, as well as showcase the timeless charm of their specialties in ukiyoe.
Shiriagari’s Nearly 36 Somewhat Ridiculous Views of Difficult Green will also be on display.
