...<b>Goblins, Ghosts, and Ghouls in Japanese Prints</b><br /> by Laura C. Mallonee, 2014<br /><br />Unsurprisingly, these ghost stories piqued the artistic imagination, and many printmakers in 18th- and 19th-century Japan translated them into colorful woodblock prints. Some are now on view in the Art Institute of Chicago’s Ghosts and Demons in Japanese Prints, an exhibition not meant for the easily spooked.<br />.<br />http://hyperallergic.com/158516/goblins-ghosts-and-ghouls-in-japanese-prints/Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659716.post-45191698207875082212015-01-27T17:19:39.216-08:002015-01-27T17:19:39.216-08:00Bakejizo, Bake-Jizo 化け地蔵 / 化地蔵 Jizo as a yokai mon...<b>Bakejizo, Bake-Jizo 化け地蔵 / 化地蔵 Jizo as a yokai monster<br /><br />obake Jizoo お化け地蔵 O-bake Jizo <br /></b>Gabi Greve - Darumapediahttp://gokurakuparadies.blogspot.jp/2015/01/bake-jizo-monster.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659716.post-36351007107596813352014-10-20T18:47:32.793-07:002014-10-20T18:47:32.793-07:00karakasa obake から傘お化け / 唐傘お化け umbrella ghost

at the Osaka...“Japanese Ghosts and Eerie Creatures”<br />at the Osaka Museum of History<br />is mostly play, with little horror. This is because so much of the genre’s visual and thematic core was part of the spectacle of the stage in 17th-century kabuki theater, and among the wide variety of other prints and paintings you’ll find caricature, parody and comic invention.<br /><br />The truly macabre is only a side show, as in the splattered bloody gore of “A Ghost Holding a Woman’s Head” by Keisai Eisen (1790-1848). Playful fiction is never far from spilling over into reality, however, as in the anatomical sketches that were used as visual evidence of “monsters” that terrorized Motogi village (in present-day Fukuoka) between 1680-84.<br /><br />MORE<br />http://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2013/05/09/arts/the-ghouls-who-played-on-the-japanese-mind/#.UYrca0rOeE8<br />.Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659716.post-25548832323458487922010-06-16T23:06:48.533-07:002010-06-16T23:06:48.533-07:00.
