     ★日本最紅火藝術策展人秋元雄史,美術鑑賞代表作第二彈。  ★延續前作「一張圖兩步驟」解讀脈絡,無痛進入東洋美學世界。  ★全彩印刷,收錄25件名作,完整介紹繩文~明治以降的美術演進。  ★全面剖析東洋美學精神、日本美術如何影響西方繪畫。  日本美術才不只浮世繪!繪卷、水墨畫、屏風、絹畫都大有學問!  俗話說「西洋鍍金,東洋鍍銀」。  西方世界的強盛你一定不陌生,但同樣身為東方國家的日本,  是如何脫亞入歐,成為與歐美齊名的亞洲強國?  若想了解箇中緣由,從東洋美學談起,似乎是個不錯的切入點。  東洋美學的品味別樹一格,幽微、侘寂、陰翳中帶著俐落的灑脫,  不僅滲透到日本人的生活,甚至塑造了整個商業社會的氣質與面貌。  早從19世紀中期,第一幅「浮世繪」出現在巴黎世界博覽會上,  啟發印象派畫家的那一刻起,東洋美學就注定要在世界上占有一席之地。  時至今日,全世界對東洋美學的關注未曾退減. ...
