The Ghost of Hokusai
Manage episode 478212179 series 2482703
New episode! It is the stuff of legend, how Claude Monet discovers Japanese art in the late 1800s and becomes one of the most famous artists in the world. But one influence is as real as he is mysterious. The artist behind the "great wave" and hundreds of other iconic images. The artist who calls himself Hokusai (at least for a time), and only becomes more powerful after he's gone.
You can see art by both Monet and Hokusai, side by side, in the show "Hokusai / Monet" on view at the Minneapolis Institute of Art through August 10.
