American Sojourns and the Collecting of Japanese Art

June 25 - December 18, 2016 - This exhibition will explore how American collectors in Japan impacted the Johnson’s collection.  American tourism in Japan during the Meiji period (1868–1912) spurred the collecting of Japanese art and design. Another upsurge at the end of World War II spawned a new generation of collectors, whose enthusiasm for Japanese art and culture impacted American museum collections.
