This exhibition, developed by guest curator Matthew Willie Garcia, draws from the Mulvane's rich collection of Japanese woodblock prints, which the museum received in 1968 as a gift from Robert Whitcomb. Garcia takes inspiration from traditional Japanese woodblock printing (mokuhanga) in his innovative practice as a multimedia printmaker. His selections highlight the history, techniques, forms, and effects of mokuhanga, offering a fresh view of this engaging medium from the perspective of an artist.
