The 60th anniversary College Women’s Association of Japan print show features more than 200 contemporary Japanese prints by established and emerging artists. Selected by international printmaking experts in Japan, the prints encompass diverse techniques from traditional woodblock, to intaglio, lithography, etching, aquatint, silkscreen and more contemporary digital innovations.
Kanreki A 60 Year Journey presents the work of emerging artists such as Satomi Tanaka, Shoji Miyamoto, and Kazuya Kanda alongside established masters Fumiaki Fukita, Tetsuya Noda (image below), Reika Iwami, and Toko Shinoda, among others.
The show debuted in Tokyo in 2015 and Highfield Hall & Gardens, 55 Highfield Drive in Falmouth, is its exclusive U.S. venue. Since its inception in 1956, the CWAJ print show has become a highly acclaimed and internationally recognized exhibition. Proceeds from the sale of the prints support Highfield’s programs and the CWAJ scholarship fund.
People interested in purchasing prints may contact the Director of Exhibitions, Annie Dean, at adean@highfieldhall.org. The show is sponsored by Michaels and by the Rockland Trust Charitable Foundation.
