Aiming at creating Japanese-style painting for a new era under the mentorship of Japanese scholar Okakura Kakuzo (Tenshin), Shunso first tried to express spirituality through line drawing. Then, after experimenting with&nbsp;<em>morotai<\/em>&nbsp;that parted with expressivity of lines, eventually established his decorative style with the almost blank background. His&nbsp;<em>Fallen Leaves<\/em>&nbsp;(1909; collection of the Eisei Bunko Museum, Tokyo, entrusted to the Kumamoto Prefectural Museum of Art, Important Cultural Property) and&nbsp;<em>Black Cat<\/em>&nbsp;(1910; collection of the Eisei Bunko Museum, Tokyo entrusted to the Kumamoto Prefectural Museum of Art, Important Cultural Property) are widely known as masterpieces of modern Japanese art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrating the 140th anniversary of the painter\u2019s birth, this retrospective gathers together 108 of his important pieces including four Important Cultural Properties. Presenting all the five pieces in the series&nbsp;<em>Fallen Leaves<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Black Cat<\/em>&nbsp;and related works, pieces newly found during exhibition preparation, and many pieces shown for the first time in several decades, this retrospective will provide a unique opportunity to take a general view of Shunso\u2019s creative career, and to appreciate anew the charm of the painter\u2019s art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking this opportunity, we have selected ten of Shunso\u2019s paintings to conduct scientific researches into color materials in collaboration with researchers and collectors. In addition, we have been reviewing the presumed production dates of the painter\u2019s works, using the styles of his signatures as clues and checking against his production notes that were made late in his life and discovered recently. Presenting the results of these activities, we hope this retrospective can lay a foundation for future researches into Shunso\u2019s art, and contribute to modern art research in general.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-02\" class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Sections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards a Nihonga Artist: Depicting \u201cThoughts\u201d 1890-1897<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards \u201cMorotai\u201d: Depicting Air and Light 1898-1902<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards Research on Coloring: Arranging the Colors 1903-1908<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards Fallen Leaves and Black Cat: Whether or Not to Depict Perspective 1908-1911<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-00\" class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hours &amp;
