The Art of Japanese Paper : Masks, Lanterns, Kites, Dolls, Origami
Description:
A unique & comprehensive look at paper in Japan, lavishly illustrated with over 260 color photographs. To the Japanese, paper has profound meaning. For them, its purity symbolizes the religious offering, & respect for gods & men. Cut out or folded, it extends the code of speech & gesture. While the Japanese place great importance upon "the idea or the beautiful," paper also plays a utilitarian role, in the form of lanterns, parasols, fans, wrapping paper, or playthings such as kites, dolls & origami. Hence the craftsman who fashions it draws attention to the sensuality of its feel, its delicate fragrance & varied hues.
