Description
"Conveying the impressive range and beauty of art associated with the tradition of kami veneration in Japan, 'Shinto: Discovery of the Divine in Japanese Art' presents works in various media--caligraphy, painting,s culpture, costume, and decorative arts--assembled from religious institutions and museums in Japan, and from collections in the United States. Kami veneration, a practice often referred to as Shinto in modern sources, is unique to Japan, although a number of its components stem from court and religious rituals in neighboring countries. 'Shinto' accompanies an exhibition at the Cleveland Museum of Art, presented with the special cooperation of the Nara National Museum in Japan, and is written by top scholars from the United States and Japan. It is the first catalogue in any language to bring together significant works from both U.S. and Japanese collections related to kami veneration, documenting these rare and fragile works."
