 James A. Michener、浮世絵、殷允芃



James Albert Michener (/ˈmɪnər/;[1] February 3, 1907 – October 16, 1997) was an American author of more than 40 books, most of which were fictional, lengthy family sagas covering the lives of many generations in particular geographic locales and incorporating solid history. Michener had numerous bestsellers and works selected for Book of the Month Club, and was known for his meticulous research behind the books

我有他的浮世絵專書,可惜以封箱,當時沒想到我會作浮世絵的諸大師。
The Floating World1954Michener, in the text accompanying these prints, details how Japanese printmakersers in the Edo period kept their art alive in the face of government restrictions.

作HOKUSAI 時,我有他的著作The Hokusai Sketch-Books參考。
其實,這些浮世絵著作,只是他業餘嗜好的一些表現。

訪問中所舉的著名小說《櫻花戀》、《夏威夷》:

Sayonara1954Set during the early 1950s, it tells the story of Major Gruver, a soldier stationed in Japan, who falls in love with Hana-Ogi, a Japanese woman. The novel follows their cross-cultural Japanese romance and illuminates the racism of the post-World War II time period.
Hawaii1959This historical novel spans centuries of Hawaiian history, exploring the myriad of influences that have shaped the people and landscapes of the state.

【巴黎隨筆|倫敦的印象派畫家】
 最近巴黎小皇宮推出一檔「倫敦的印象派畫家(1870-1904)」特展。這批印象派畫家又被稱為「逃亡中的法國藝術家」。
 1871年法國第二帝國因為普法戰爭的失敗而衰落。緊接著,巴黎公社的紛擾導致不少法國人到英國避難。藝術家也不例外,尤其是年輕的印象派畫家,一時倫敦成為一些畫家的駐足之處。那時候大英帝國的聲望如日中天,維多利亞時代倫敦的藝術市場也比巴黎活絡。
 法國畫商狄杭—于埃(Paul Durand-Ruel)對在倫敦的印象派畫家的推廣有決定性作用。他把個人收藏的印象派繪畫,陳列在他座落於巴黎羅馬街的住宅,供人參觀,曾被讚譽為「法國最好的當代館」,與那時候官方的當代館——盧森堡美術館收藏的學院繪畫形成鮮明的對比。(撰文/李明明)
