British Museum Japanese Art Collection Exhibition Recommended Program | NHK Aomori
Summary
NHK Aomori’s special program focuses on the fusuma paintings that reunited after about 150 years at the British Museum. The show traces the connection between the works housed in the former residence of the Miyako family in Nakatochi, Aomori, and the identical pieces in the museum, exploring questions about the artist, the reasons for their creation, and the circumstances of their acquisition. Using new research and 8K high‑resolution CGI, the program reveals the sophisticated techniques hidden in the fusuma paintings and provides context about the Kanō school’s influence. It also outlines the schedule for the “British Museum Japanese Art Collection Exhibition” in Tokyo, the NHK ONE streaming dates, and related broadcasts, aiming to showcase the allure and historical significance of Japanese art.
