Books
1960s Japan was one of the world's major frontiers of vanguard art. As Japanese artists developed diverse practices parallel to, and sometimes antecedent to, their Western counterparts, they found themselves in a new reality of 'international contemporaneity (kokusaiteki dojisei). Reiko Tomii examines three key figures in Japanese art of the 1960s who made radical and inventive art in the 'wilderness' - away from Tokyo, outside traditional norms, and with little institutional support.
