Nous sommes partis en week-end avec la belle-famille à Tottori. Petit week-end plage et ryoukan. Bien sûr j’ai surtout fait la bête de somme. Le Ryoukan le plus souvent ça se paie en cash mais le notre prenait des moyens de paiements chinois et PayPal…. On a visité en stream le musée des Ukiyoe à Namba-Shinsaibashi. Il vaut le détour si vous pensez pouvoir vous intéresser aux estampes. Il est bien didactique sur quelques pratiques et avec une petite quantité d’oeuvres. J’ai fait l’assistant de langue au lycée pendant un mois avant les vacances d’été. C’est un autre monde. J’ai perdu l’internet au printemps. Et c’est pas simple de se The post Première partie de l'été 2022 first appeared on 楽しいフランス語.

You can check the transcript on my website, as well as the photos of the three ukiyoe postcards which I am talking about.

Today, we're discussing the evolution of a unique form of modern Japanese art: shin hanga, or new woodblocks, which attempted to combine Western painting techniques with woodblock printing. They're not as well remembered as old ukiyo-e prints, but say something very interesting about the tension between modernity and tradition in 20th century Japan! Show notes here.

In this episode of the Books on Asia Podcast, sponsored by Stone Bridge Press, host Amy Chavez talks with anthropologist, shamisen player, author, and translator Liza Dalby about her books and her new translation of the recently deceased novelist cum Buddhist nun Jakuchō Setouchi's memoir "Places."Liza is author of the Geisha, Kimono: Fashioning Culture, East Wind Melts the Ice: A Guide to Serenity Through the Seasons, and  Hidden Buddhas: A Novel of Karma and Chaos. Her previous translations include Little Songs of Geisha: Traditional Japanese Ko-Uta.Amy and Liza talk about Liza's long career writing about Japan, starting with Geisha and how that world of women changed along with the modernization of Japanese society, why the geisha survive today, and the meaning of the word "kimono." They also discuss different kinds of kimono, the difference between the yukata (often called a "summer kimono") and a robe. Liza lets us in on the controversy behind the original cover of Tale of Murasaki and how and why she convinced the publisher to change it to the current one.They also talk about the controversies behind Setouchi Jakuchō, how Liza came to translate her autobiography, and how she missed a chance to talk to Jakuchō during a visit to Kyōto.Lastly, Liza reveals her  favorite books on Japan:The Tale of Genji, by Murasaki ShikibuRobin Gill's translations of haikuthe woodblock prints of Yoshi Toshi and the late John Stevenson's booksVisit Liza Dalby's website.The Books on Asia Podcast is sponsored by Stone Bridge Press.

Torniamo a parlare d'arte, e lo facciamo con Alessandro!Se qualche episodio fa ci eravamo discostati dalle stampe ukiyo-e, questa settimana ci addentriamo invece proprio nel "mondo fluttuante" e l'influenza che i capolavori di Hiroshige e Hokusai hanno avuto sull'arte impressionista attraverso il fenomeno del “giapponismo”.E poi ancora, approfondiamo la vicenda storica e culturale del maestro di spada Miyamoto Musashi, stratega assolutamente brillante nonché autore di "Il libro dei cinque anelli".L'immagine di copertina è "Miyamoto Musashi" di Utagawa Kuniyoshi, dalla serie "Honchō Kendō Ryakuden", Museum of Fine Arts (Boston).

Se si parla di arte giapponese la prima cosa che viene in mente sono i capolavori di artisti come Hiroshige e Hokusai. Nell'episodio di oggi ci discostiamo però dal mondo dell'ukiyo-e per approfondire una parte dell'arte nipponica di cui forse si parla meno, ma che è in grado di regalarci opere egualmente straordinarie.La nostra ospite, Marta, ci parla infatti di Tawaraya Sotatsu, artista all'avanguardia attivo fino alla prima metà del periodo Edo che con la sua produzione è stato in grado di influenzare non solo artisti del tuo tempo, ma anche moderni e contemporanei.L'opera nell'immagine è “Rotolo di poesie waka con raffigurazioni di gru” (dettaglio), di Tawaraya Sōtatsu e Hon'ami Koetsu, Museo Nazionale di Kyōto.

Si dice che in Giappone i tatuaggi non siano tendenzialmente ben visti. La vicenda storica e sociale nipponica ha in effetti portato ad associarli alla yakuza, la mafia giapponese, e di conseguenza è stato fatto divieto alle persone tatuate di accedere a determinati luoghi, come le onsen, a meno che i tatuaggi non vengano coperti.Inauguriamo la terza stagione del programma con Corinne, appassionata sia di tatuaggi che di Giappone: con lei esploriamo l'origine di questa forma d'arte in terra del Sol Levante e tra una curiosità e l'altra diamo anche un'occhiata alle tecniche tradizionali e alla percezione odierna del fenomeno.

"Japanese culture, once upon a time, encouraged and celebrated sex openly. Now we do so secretly." Shungas are windows to the sexually liberal lives of 17th to 19th century Japanese people, and a vital hint to solving the mysterious gap between the clean, polite and disciplined image of Japan and the fact that the keywords "Japanese" and "Hentai" became No. 1 and 2 (respectively) search words on Pornhub in 2019. Show host Kyota Ko presents to you a hilarious explanation of Japanese people's little historical secrets.

Immergiamoci nella musica giapponese, dalle splendide melodie di Ryuichi Sakamoto e Joe Hisaishi al J-Pop e la tradizione del karaoke, e poi nelle meravigliose immagini del "mondo fluttuante": le ukiyo-e di Hiroshige e Hokusai, fino nella moderna (e un po' psichedelica) arte giapponese.

"Marine Style" flask with octopus, Aegean Civilisation of Crete, the Late Minoan Bronze Age from c. 1500-1450 BC Throughout the world and throughout time, people and cultures have both revered and feared this eight-limbed, legendary Cephalopod - the octopus. We’ll look at the mythology and folklore of the octopus, their physiology and behaviour; which all strengthen their reputation as symbols of strength, intelligence and mystery. We’ll look at artworks by Japanese master Hokusai, resin artist Keng Lye, potter Tammy Garcia and illustrator Esther Van Hulsen. Plus I make takoyaki - round octopus pancake balls!

Singapore based artist Keng Lye’s resin and acrylic 3-D octopus on an enamel plate Takoyaki ingredients Cooked octopus Takoyaki - first batch I used the Japan Centre recipe for Takoyaki: Ingredients batter:
200g flour, 
2 eggs
, 450ml water, 
pinch of dashi stock fillings:
100g fresh boiled octopus, chopped
, 1 bunch spring onion, chopped 
red pickled ginger
, tempura flakes toppings:
takoyaki sauce, 
japanese mayonnaise
, aosa powdered seaweed (or aonori)
, katsuobushi, bonito flakes How To Prepare 1. Start by creating the batter. Grab a large bowl and mix together 2 eggs, 200g of flour, 450ml of water and a little dashi stock. Set this aside. If you have the ready-made okonomiyaki flour, follow the directions for making the batter and you’re good to go.
 2. Place your takoyaki plate on the gas stove on medium heat and heat up a small amount of oil in each hole.
 3. Cut up your octopus into small pieces. Place a piece of octopus in each of the semi-circular holes, and then fill up each hole to the top with the batter mix. You can even overflow the batter out of the hole to make it easier to flip them later.
 4. Now you can add the chopped spring onion, red pickled ginger and tempura flakes to each hole. The amount you add is up to you, but only a small amount of each will give enough flavour.
 5. Once the takoyaki are about half cooked, about 1-2 minutes, you will need to flip them over. The best way to do this is to use a small wooden skewer to poke the outside of the batter and flip it over within the hole. This takes a bit of practice to get done smoothly so keep trying if you are making a mess.
 6. You can usually only flip each takoyaki about three quarters of the way round so allow it to cook a little more before flipping it again. By now, all your takoyaki should be round so keep rotating them in the holes to make sure that they cook evenly on all sides. This will take about 3-4 minutes until golden brown on the outside. 

 7. Place a few takoyaki on a plate and smother them with loads of takoyaki sauce and Japanese mayonnaise. Then sprinkle a bit of powdered seaweed and some bonito flakes on top and enjoy. Allow to cool slightly and enjoy hot.

David Bull is an ukiyo-e woodblock printer and carver who heads the Mokuhankan ukiyo-e studio in Asakusa, Tokyo. Born in Britain, Bull moved to Canada at age 5 and lived there until 1986 when he  relocated with his family to Tokyo to pursue ukiyo-e. He first discovered Japanese woodblocks while browsing an art gallery in Toronto at age 29. Intrigued, he started making his own prints without formal training.  He is known for his work on the Ukiyo-e heroes kickstarter crowd-funding project together with Jed Henry, recreating modern video-game scenes in old-style woodblock prints. The Mokuhankan studio has a shop and offers 'print parties' for amateurs, where they can try the craft of printing. I met Dave at his studio in Tokyo where we talked, among other things, about Toronto's Stuart Jackson gallery, the physical nature of woodblock prints (not the content!), moving to Japan, the "death" of traditional Japanese woodblock printing in the 20th century, ukiyo-e prints as 'low' culture, 'visual letterpress,' French salons, pop culture, cliff-hanger picture books, mixing illustration and text, Hokusai and Manga, Japanese Meiji era, the desirability of "mouth pictures," Video game characters, Washi paper, and the importance of the 18th century book One Hundred People, One Hundred Poems to modern Japanese culture.   Check out Dave's extensive library of videos on Japanese woodblock printing here.

In this episode, Travis discusses his experience as an intern at the Smithsonian Institute's Freer/Sackler Galleries in the Edo period book digitization program over the summer of 2011. He talks about the digitization process, as well as about the books and their binding and production, as well as why Japan never really got into using movable type in the printing process. He also reveals a little about what it's like in the Smithsonian's top-secret underground storage facilities. But not too much.

This episode Travis talks about a conference he attended in October 2011 titled "Utopias and the Japanese Imaginary". Travis presented his paper on Hokusai's "Eight Views of Okinawa", a collection of eight woodblock prints done by Hokusai, who had never actually been to Okinawa. He discusses why Hokusai chose to do a collection of prints on Okinawa, despite never having been there, what resources he used, and why.

During the Edo period, tales of revenge taken from events of the day inspired artists, play writes, and entertainers alike, and developed into an entire genre of popular culture which we examine in this podcast.
