barbara-
you said it was a west coast tour, but their web site said nothing about it...(or at least i could find nothing about the tour...) do you know if they will be coming down to san francisco?
We hope to have more information, I will find out from PNCA. They said they had a flyer so that may tell us.
Best to you,
Barbara
Barbara,
I just received this from Christy Wyckoff. My work schedule does not allow
me time to attend but I thought it was important to post it for the group:
Hi everyone,
I want to invite all of you to attend the demonstration of
traditional Japanese woodcut printmaking on Friday, September 23,
12:30-1:30 in the Commons of PNCA.
Ms. Chiharu Enomoto from the Adachi Institute will be printing a
reproduction of Hokusai's "Cresting Wave off the Coast of Kanagawa"
popularly known as "The Great Wave" from the series "Thirty-six Views
of Mt. Fuji".
Ms. Enomoto will be printing from new blocks that are carved to
duplicate as closely as possible the original blocks.
The Adachi Institute is dedicated to the reproduction of Ukiyo-e
prints and will bring other examples of their work to the
demonstration. Their website is www.adachi-hanga.com
This is a rare opportunity to see authentic traditional Japanese
hanga printing.
Please come!
Christy
Be well,
Maurice Fykes III
Here is the schedule for the Adachi tour
Best to all,
Barbara
