Join Sarah Thompson, curator, Japanese Art, and Kendall DeBoer, assistant curator, Contemporary Art, to hear about the creation of “Hokusai: Inspiration and Influence,” a major exhibition that explores Katsushika Hokusai’s impact on artists across time and around the world. The curators dive into responses to Hokusai’s work throughout history—from artists such as his daughter Katsushika Ōi, his contemporaries Utagawa Hiroshige and Utagawa Kuniyoshi, the 19th-century French Japonistes, and modern and contemporary artists including Loïs Mailou Jones, Roy Lichtenstein, Judith Schaechter, and Yoshitomo Nara.
