  • Why was the monster that was supposed to be scary drawn so charmingly? Solving the riddles of yokai paintings, the last bastion of Japanese art history. Because of its popular nature and caricature or satirical expressions, ''yokai paintings'' have rarely been featured as a theme in art history. However, in Japan, it is a wide-ranging field that has been familiar to both children and adults since ancient times, and is also an important subject closely related to Japan's unique indigenous culture and religion, such as nature beliefs and local folklore. This project will reconsider the lineage of ''yokai paintings,'' which have not been talked about as mainstream in art history, and will provide an opportunity to reconsider certain characteristic aspects of Japanese art, such as laughter and play. Yokai Manga Volume 1 A collaboration between Yokai We publish a wealth of yokai paintings (picture scrolls) drawn from the Heian period to the early Meiji period, and based on their popular nature and caricature, we trace the ancestral form of yokai paintings, which had rarely been attempted in art history. and decipher its genealogy. Preface: Yoshio Tsuji Included works: 『 Hyakki Yagyo Emaki (Matsui Bunko) 』/Toriyama Sekien 『 illustration Hyakki Yagyo 』/Yoshimitsu 『 Hyakki no Zu 』/『 Monster Jin Emaki 』/Tosa Mitsuki 『 Hyakki Yagyo no Zu 』 and others. ――― Yokai Manga vol.1 Due to its popular appeal and caricaturish, satirical content, yokai-ga (literally, pictures of monstrous creatures – yokai) have been treated as a minor current within Japanese art history.Enjoyed by the common people of Japan since ancient times, yokai-ga have been valued also for their intimate associations with the nature beliefs and folk traditions that are the native culture and religion of Japan.This publishing project is considering the lineage of yokai-ga in order to offer a fresh look at the distinctive aspects of comicality and humor in Japanese art.
