Artists included are Emmet Gowin, Sally Mann, Edward Weston, and a recent acquisition of an image by Dayton photographer Amy Powell, among others.

ALL BY MYSELF: JAPANESE CREATIVE PRINTS On view through September 19, 2021

Saitō Kiyoshi (Japanese, 1907–1997), Cats, 1953, woodblock print, ink and color on paper, number 40/50. Private Collection

The long tradition of exquisite printmaking in Japan is due, in part, to the division of labor, having different specialists handle each stage of the printmaking process: designing, carving and printing. However, in the early twentieth century certain print artists began doing everything themselves, producing what were known as sosakuhanga, or “creative prints,” which are highly individual expressions in both style and subject matter. This exhibition presents examples from several artists working within the sosaku-hanga movement, including recent acquisitions.

BUKANG Y. KIM: JOURNEY TO THE EAST On view through August 15, 2021

Artist Bukang Y. Kim in her studio.

This exhibition is an immersive installation of recent scroll paintings

by Bukang Y. Kim, the internationallyrecognized Korean artist now living in Cincinnati. Inspired by universal features of nature, Kim’s paintings blend abstraction and naturalism and create a rich dialogue between East and West. The series of 10 scroll paintings is based on the sublime Siberian landscape. Shown publicly for the first time, this installation will offer a singular meditative experience.
