“À la cour du Prince Genji” 1000 ans d'imaginaire japonaisau Musée national des arts asiatiques – Guimet, Parisdu 22 novembre 2023 au 25 mars 2024Interview de Aurélie Samuel, conservatrice du patrimoine et commissaire de l'exposition, et de Monsieur Akira Nonaka, fils de Itarô Yamaguchi (1901-2007) maître tisserand à Kyoto (en japonais avec traductrice),par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Paris, le 20 novembre 2023, durée 26'08,© FranceFineArt.https://francefineart.com/2023/11/22/3498_a-la-cour-du-prince-genji_musee-national-des-arts-asiatiques-guimet/Communiqué de presseCommissariat de l'exposition :Aurélie Samuel, conservatrice du patrimoineCélèbre pour le raffinement extrême de son art de cour et son effervescence artistique, le Japon impérial de l'époque de Heian (794-1185) a notamment donné naissance à une oeuvre majeure de la littérature classique japonaise, le Dit du Genji. Écrit au 11e siècle par une femme, la poétesse Murasaki Shikibu, et considéré comme le premier roman psychologique de l'Histoire, le Genji est à l'origine, depuis sa création il y a mille ans, d'une iconographie extrêmement riche, influençant jusqu'aux mangakas contemporains. Il a ainsi inspiré de nombreux artistes et artisans du Japon à travers les siècles, parmi lesquels Itarô Yamaguchi (1901-2007), maître tisserand à Kyoto, dont quatre rouleaux tissés exceptionnels sont présentés pour la première fois dans leur intégralité.La première partie de l'exposition invite le visiteur à se plonger dans le Japon ancien, à travers l'évocation d'une architecture traditionnelle. Le visiteur y explore l'époque Heian (794-1185) et son art de cour. Cette période de liberté pour les femmes, et à la production artistique particulièrement riche, voit notamment l'émergence d'une littérature féminine, unique dans l'histoire du Japon. Si la poésie chinoise kanshi reste l'apanage des élites masculines gouvernantes, les femmes, elles, s'emparent des poèmes de style waka qu'elles rédigent à l'aide d'un système d'écriture cursive dérivé du chinois et adapté à la langue japonaise d'alors. Affranchies du modèle chinois, elles vont produire des oeuvres mêlant waka et prose, sous forme de journaux ou d'histoires racontées.Texte le plus célèbre, écrit au 11e siècle par la poétesse Murasaki Shikibu, le Dit du Genji (Genji monogatari) est aujourd'hui considéré comme l'oeuvre la plus représentative de la littérature classique du Japon. À travers une évocation subtile de tous les raffinements de la cour impériale, le Dit du Genji ouvre la voie à une exceptionnelle créativité picturale et suscite une iconographie extrêmement riche, qu'attestent laques, estampes, tissus, kimonos, sculptures, peintures et objets précieux, provenant du musée Guimet et de plusieurs collections françaises et japonaises. Marie-Antoinette elle-même collectionnait des boîtes en laque représentant des scènes du Genji… Ce roman fondateur pour la culture japonaise a inspiré de nombreux artistes et artisans jusqu'à nos jours, et jusqu'aux nouvelles formes d'art. Le manga notamment, qui réinterprète les codes picturaux, les thèmes et les scènes de l'histoire du Genji avec une époustouflante inventivité, dont le plus célèbre est sans doute Asaki yume mishi de Waki Yamato (né en 1948). Œuvre magistrale, le Dit du Gengi est encore adapté de nos jours, comme en témoigne la récente édition de Sean Michael Wilson, illustrée par Inko Ai Takita, qui tapissera les murs et le sol d'un espace de l'exposition.[...] Hébergé par Acast.

Mitchell and Antti talk with Sean Michael Wilson about his graphic novel about a Participatory Economy, called “PareComic: The Story of Michael Albert and Participatory Economics”. 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of PareComic. What inspired him to write it? How has it faired? And what have been people's reactions to it?Introduction by Noam Chomsky:“Parecomic is a graphic novel about something that affects us all: the system we live in—what's wrong with it, and how we might be able change it for the better. Written by Sean Michael Wilson, and drawn by Carl Thompson, Parecomic is about Michael Albert—the visionary behind “participatory economics”—and his life's struggle as a left-wing activist in the US.”Order the book: https://participatoryeconomy.org/book/parecomic/Sean Michael Wilson Website: https://seanmichaelwilson.weebly.com/parecomic.htmlSean Michael Wilson Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@boychildnew1/videosSupport the Show.Website: https://www.ParticipatoryEconomy.orgYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ParticipatoryEconomyTwitter: https://twitter.com/pareconomyFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParticipatoryEconomySupport Us: https://www.paypal.com/donate/…

An entire subgenre of samurai films, shows, manga, anime and games can be traced back to one person – a real life samurai named Miyamoto Musashi. He was not the first samurai to achieve fame, but his remarkable career of undefeated duals, and his unconventional style of fighting cemented Musashi's legacy in the popular imagination for centuries. Chie Kutsuwada and Sean Michael Wilson discuss their manga adaptation of Musashi's Book of Five Rings. Yale professor Aaron Gerow, and Darren Ashmore and Will Reed from iCLA explain why Musashi's life story had a character arc that was irresistible to storytellers. And Stephanie Billman and I connect the dots from Musashi samurai tales to Westerns, Westworld, and Star Wars. This episode is sponsored by Skillshare and BetterHelp. Our ad partner is Multitude.

Michael Albert is an American economist, speaker, writer, and political critic. Since the late 1970s, he has published books, articles, and other contributions on a wide array of subjects. He is known for helping to develop the socioeconomic theory of participatory economics. In 1965, Albert was studying physics at MIT, where Albert met long-time friend and collaborator, Noam Chomsky. Albert publicly objected to the US military's funding of the university. This, along with the civil rights movement, led Albert to become politically active. He became a member of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and opposed the Vietnam War. He was expelled from MIT, in January 1970, for disruptive behavior, although he claimed the charges were 'cooked-up'. Albert founded South End Press in 1977 along with Lydia Sargent and Juliet Schor, among others. In 1987, Albert founded Zeta Magazine with Sargent. The magazine focused on libertarian and anarchist socialist thought. It was renamed Z Magazine in 1989. In 1990–91, Albert and Robin Hahnel worked on outlining their ideas around participatory economics. They published 'Looking Forward' and 'The Political Economy of Participatory Economics,' with the latter including an economic model of the system. By 1995, the organization Z Magazine had branched out providing online content and media training. Along with the magazine the ventures are collectively known as Z Communications. In 2003, 'Parecon: Life After Capitalism' was published further outlining participatory economics in a more accessible, less academic format. The book was translated into 20 languages. Albert was a founding member of the International Organization for a Participatory Society, in 2012. Sean Michael Wilson created a comic book based on Albert and his ideas in 2013. His latest book, 'Practical Utopia: Strategies for a Desirable Society,' was published in 2017. Albert is the co-founder of 'C20,' a group of activists, scholars, and writers from around the world who write under the pseudonym, 'Collective 20.'

In this episode, Bo Bennett speaks with Sean Michael Wilson, author of the graphic non-fiction "Goodbye God?", exploring the art of graphic illustrations, church-state separation in England and Scotland, and several other humanist issues. Sean Michael Wilson has written around 20 books, published by a variety of US, UK and Japanese publishers and translated into eight languages. As well as writing 'western' style graphic novels, he often works with Japanese and Chinese artists on manga style books. Japanese publisher Kodansha has published 3 of his manga books so far, and he has had work published in the keitai/mobile phone manga format in Japan - both very unusual for a British creator. His comic books are different from the normal superhero/fantasy brands in collaboration with a variety of 'non-comic book' organizations, such as charities and museums. His main influences include British and American creators, such as Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Eddie Campbell and Harvey Pekar.

This week I am delighted to welcome Sean Michael Wilson to the show. Sean Michael Wilson is Scottish comic book writer, who now lives and works in Japan. In the last couple of years, Sean Michael has released a couple of explicitly political graphic novels: 'Parecomic: The Story of Michael Albert and Participatory Economics' 'Fight the Power! A Visual History of Protests Among the English Speaking Peoples' He has also recently wrote a post for the Forbidden Planet Blog on how an anarchy-based economic system would benefit the creation of comics, and all art in general. We discuss the creative process of the comic-book writer, the emergence of the adult comic-book genre, the Walking Dead and it’s Hobbesian view of the world, why Hollywood does not do anarchy, progressive politics in comics, socialism and the world of art, and the need for revolutionary jokes.
