Japan has participated in the Venice Biennale on a national scale since 1952. The present publication seeks to review 40 years of Japanese participation and to examine Japan’s attempts at presenting her art to the rest of the world. The retrospect also lays open a cross section of the history of Japanese postwar art. Detailed information of Japanese participation from 1952 to 1993, essays, bibliography, as well as documentation of a forum entitled ‘The Venice Biennale and Japan – From the Past to the Future’ can be found in this book.
