In the past few years, however, representations of Japanese art in the biennials in Venice and Sao Paulo, as well as in the Carnegie and Guggenheim Internationals have shown some of the remarkable developments in Japanese paintings and sculpture which have taken place in the last decade. 'The New Japanese Painting and Sculpture' is the largest exhibition of contemporary Japanese art so far presented in the United States. It is a special pleasure for the International Council of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, as part of its program of exchange in the visual arts, to introduce this exhibition to the large audience it will reach while circulating to museums and art galleries in this country." excerpt from the foreword by Elizabeth A. Straus, President, The International Council of The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Good/No Jacket.
