More Flavor: Lecture MATCHA: Japanese Tattoo
-
- Japanese Tattoo
Bushido, the samurai code of honor, has long informed the iconography of traditional Japanese tattooing, making the latter the perfect subject for the October edition of the Asian Art Museum's Thursday-night series, MATCHA. Accompanying a gallery tour focused on samurai culture, some of the top practitioners of Japanese tattoo art demonstrate their craft. Horitaka, apprentice to renowned master Horiyoshi III, discusses the centuries-old art form and its modern evolution before he and a group of local and international artists show how it's done. Japanese tea tastings and an investigation of Edo shrines round out the evening.
