C.A.S. DISPLAYS FAMOUS JAPANESE PRINTS IN TAUPO
The Taupo Community Arts Service has arranged for the display in Taupo on Thursday and Friday next of a beatutiful and outstanding collection of one hundred Japanese woodcut prints. These will be on show in the Returned Services Association's Rooms in the War Memorial Hall from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. on both days mentioned. The coilection has been made available through Unesco, and the list of exhibits show representative works of famous Japanese artists. The woodcut prints represent an art created early in the late seventeenth century which attained greatest popularity after the invention of bright polychrome woodcut printing. The present exhibition is unprecedented in quality and scale, and has drawn great interest wherever it has been shown to date in New Zealand. Taupo people should not miss the opportunity, provided by the local C.A.S. , of seeing this unusual display of an art that has a universal appeal.
