The Eastern Division of the Japan Art History Society, in conjunction with the Sendai City Museum, will hold the symposium described below. Symposium attendants will also have the opportunity to view the well-received exhibition Statues of Buddhism and Historical Figures, currently at the museum.
We look forward to welcoming you all to the day’s events.

“Salvation and Miraculous Efficacy” |
| Chair: |
IZUMI, Takeo |
| Overview: |
In commemoration of the Museum’s 50th anniversary, and as a prayer for
the timely recovery from this year’s natural disasters, the Sendai City
Museum is holding the exhibition Statues of Buddhism and Historical Figures.
This exhibition presents Buddhist sculptures and artifacts, drawn primarily
from Sendai, and some other regional temples and shrines, along with portrait
sculpture enshrined at these institutions. These works will provide viewers
with insights into the region’s history and traditions. In conjunction
with the exhibition, a symposium will be held to consider issues related
to the meaning entrusted in Buddhist paintings and religious sculpture,
their true aims and their reception by the greater populace. Focusing on
two key factors in East Asian religious art, namely salvation and miracles,
the symposium will examine the meaning and implications of these two concepts. |

○ 2011 JAHS Eastern Division Meeting
(28/10/2011 update)
○ Announcement from the Japan Art History Society : After the Great East
Japan Earthquake
We extend our heartfelt condolences to all
those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake and pray for those lost
in this tragedy.
The earthquake of immense magnitude, tsunami
and ongoing Fukushima nuclear disaster severely damaged countless cultural
properties, museums and cultural facilities in the disaster zones. Naturally,
initial efforts focused on saving lives and reestablishing lifelines, but
it must also be recognized that there is urgent need for the tallying,
rescue, recovery, and ongoing safety of destroyed, damaged and otherwise
affected cultural properties, art works, books, maps, historical documents,
natural history specimens, records and other such materials. At present,
the Agency for Cultural Affairs (Bunkacho) has established a Secretariat
of the Project to Rescue Cultural Properties Damaged by the Tohoku Earthquake
and Tsunami headquartered at the National Research Institute for Cultural
Properties, Tokyo and Cultural Property Rescue Programme have begun on
site. The Arts and Culture Division of the Agency for Cultural Affairs
is managing the Agency’s rescue operations. The gist of this program is
the dispatch of specialist staff, such as curators, to the education departments
of the involved local and prefectural governments, and the provision of
temporary storage for damaged and affected cultural properties.
The Japan Art History Society is participating
in these operations and along with the full-hearted efforts of all those
Society members assisting with the preservation of cultural properties,
we hereby extend a call for cooperation with the Cultural Property Rescue
Programme. In order to facilitate monetary donations to the rescue, conservation
and preservation of cultural properties in the affected areas, the following
bank accounts and Information Desk have been established.
Given the magnitude of the disaster, it is
anticipated that it will require a lengthy period and extensive funding
before the art museums, museums and other cultural facilities in the disaster
zones can return to normal operation. The Japan Art History Society is
actively seeking to cooperate with these recovery efforts and is investigating
means such as the construction of a support organization to aid in the
return to normalcy for all those cultural organizations affected.
Standing Committee, Japan Art History Society
Donations towards the rescue, conservation and preservation of art works affected by disasters can be made to the following accounts:
Bank Account: Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Ueno Branch
Account Number: 6615496

| Program Summary: |
| |
In recent years, a succession of museums and institutions — public, private, large and small — have reopened after major renovation, rebuilding or relocation. Aging facilities and various issues related to display methodology have led to this transformation into new museums and art museums. There have been new facilities opened by both private and national institutions. More organizations are currently planning their own renewal projects.
This symposium will present fascinating reports from curators involved in the re-openings and openings, covering the scope from the “hardware” aspects of projects, such as display facilities, to “software” aspects of display methodologies and visitor services.
These presentations will be followed by a panel discussion to allow further questions and exchange of opinions on these subjects. This symposium will provide an opportunity to hear important information not normally disseminated to those outside of the institutions involved.
With “How do we display art works?” as one of the fundamental issues in the field of art history, this symposium’s theme is an important and appropriate subject for consideration by JAHS as a whole. |

The JAHS Eastern Division, with the cooperation of the Seiji Togo Memorial Sompo Japan Museum of Art, will hold the symposium described below in October 2010. Symposium participants can view the exhibition Self-Portraits from the Uffizi Gallery Collection, before and after the symposium sessions.
*Prior registration required. Please use the registration reply-attached postcard sent out by the Eastern Division Office. Registration is limited to the first 250 applicants. Registration forms must be received by the Office by October 12, 2010. |
| Symposium |
“Considering Self-Portraiture, Speaking from Self-Portraiture” |
| Chairman: |
Uchida keiichi |
| Symposium Overview: |
The Seiji Togo Memorial Sompo Japan Museum of Art is holding the exhibition
Self-Portraits from the Uffizi Gallery Collection (1664–2010) from September
11 – November 14, 2010. This is the first public showing in Japan of the
self-portrait collection from this major museum in the Renaissance capital
of Florence, and will feature approximately 60 works. The fascination of
the self-portrait evokes many subjects for the art historian, in terms
of expression, gaze, and the impetus for the self-portrait’s creation.
Upon this occasion the JAHS Eastern Division will hold this symposium as
an opportunity for members to consider and discuss the self-portraiture
genre. |

| Overview: |
The Tokyo National Museum is currently holding an exhibition Treasures of the Imperial Collections - Splendor of Japanese Art in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Emperor's enthronement. The exhibition features art works from the imperial collections, housed today in the Imperial Household Agency’s institutions including the Sannomaru Shozokan, the Archives Division, and the Kyoto Imperial Palace, the Shosoin Repository. This splendid selection provides an opportunity to view many works related to the imperial household that are rarely available for viewing. The exhibition encourages a reconsideration of the important role played by the imperial household in Japan's cultural history and confirmation of the meaning of the imperial household-related cultural properties in the history of art.
