Ainu Woodblock Prints Exhibition

December 4, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Jen L. Teeter of Ten Thousand Things wrote to let me know about a couple of Ainu related events. First off:

Oki and his tonkori will be funkin’ up Kyoto Friday night at Club Metro at 10pm. Tickets 3000yen at the door, 2500 in advance (Ticket Pia Code = 339-170 and Lawson Code = 55616).

And then:

The Ainu Art Project will be displaying woodblock prints and embroidery work at Sakaimachi Garow, a beautifully maintained machiya in the heart of Kyoto from December 1st through 6th from 11am-19pm…. Each woodblock print has a story to tell about Ainu conceptions of coexistence with nature, each story encapsulated in one powerful image. The prints are available for purchase… The week of art, expressing the Ainu in modern society, will culminate with Ainu storytelling and a talk led by woodblock print artist and Ainu Art Project founder Koji Yuki, and a live performance by Nagane Aki on the tonkori and mukkuri, two Ainu instruments.

Reservations are required for Sunday’s December 6th’s performance from 3pm-4pm (Email- sakaimachi-garow@h8.dion.ne.jp).

Thanks Jen! Sakaimachi Garow is on the east side of Sakaimachi street, south of Oike. Here is a map with nice English directions. For more information, please go to the Ten Thousand Things website.
