In conjunction with the exhibition Hiroshige’s 100 Famous Views of Edo (feat. Takashi Murakami) at the Brooklyn Museum, Murakami and curator Joan Cummins will discuss the artist’s new series of fantastical paintings that respond to Utagawa Hiroshige’s 100 Famous Views of Edo (1856–58), now on view at the museum for the first time in twenty-four years. Cummins and Murakami will also reflect on Hiroshige’s contributions to global art history and his role as a witness to and chronicler of environmental and social change.
