"From Cleveland to Japan: A Replica Returns to the Scene of the Original," September 12 at Carnegie Museum of Art.


The Carnegie Museum of Art will host "From Cleveland to Japan: A Replica Returns to the Scene of the Original" on September 12.

Join us on September 12 to explore the world of the Tsuzuri Project, which uses ultra-high-resolution photography in combination with classical painting and craft techniques to create singular objects based on Japanese folding screens in overseas collections.

This presentation focuses on Dragon and Tiger and the Arrival of the Southern Barbarians, two screen compositions in the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the logic behind their selection for the Project.

The talk will be held in the Carnegie Museum of Art Theater and will be followed by refreshments and a networking reception. Registration is free but donations are appreciated. Virtual attendance is also available but those who are able are encouraged to attend in person.

The event runs from 6:30 to 7:30 pm and registration is required. The Carnegie Museum of Art is located at 4400 Forbes Ave. in Oakland (map), accessible by a number of city buses.
