With over 200 works , including masterpieces never exhibited before, the HOKUSAI exhibition at Palazzo Blu in Pisa represents a unique opportunity to get to know the greatest exponent of Ukiyoe , the artistic movement linked to the lifestyle and tastes of the new emerging classes of the then city of Edo, now Tokyo.
Katsushika Hokusai , an eccentric and multifaceted artist, was able to portray with originality nature, everyday life and the many facets of the society of his time, combining traditional Japanese painting with Western art techniques, becoming an incredible interpreter of the reality around him.
