Each chapter is dedicated to a specific period and written by a specialist on the subject matter.For this English edition, overseen by Art Platform Japan, three chapters on the post-1945 era were selected. The first discusses the formation and evolution of Japanese contemporary art from 1945 to the late 1970s; the second deals with the rise of the fine art museum, which ran from the late 1970s to the 1990s, during which this idea came into focus; and the last chapter covers recent art from the 1990s to the 2010s. These three chapters are preceded by a new introduction, which briefly comments on the English edition, provides a contextual overview of the Japanese edition, and elaborates on the formation of the concept of art (bijutsu) in modern Japan. This edition provides valuable reading material that offers a deeper insight into contemporary Japanese art.With an introduction by Kajiya Kenji
