“Paintings Speak: Stories from the Uehara Museum Collection” Published by: Uehara Museum of Art, 143 pages, illustrations, 2023 A catalog for a special exhibition at the museum, which opened thanks to a donation from Mr. and Mrs. Shohachi Uehara of Taisho Pharmaceutical. Only read once and stored in a dark place. The spine, cover, and text pages are all in clean condition with no noticeable stains or folds. (Please check the condition in the photos) *Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing. The following is a quote from the museum's website regarding the exhibition's purpose: If you listen with the ears of your heart to a painting before you, it will begin to tell its story quietly. André Derain's "Nude" tells the story of the beginning of the Uehara collection. In May 1967, Shoji Uehara (current honorary chairman), then 39 years old and working for Taisho Pharmaceutical, encountered this small oil painting at a gallery. Although Uehara didn't know much about paintings, he felt a strange charm in this painting and bought his first oil painting. However, at the time, he was afraid of being scolded by his parents, with whom he lived, for being "unbefitting," so he hid it in the closet and occasionally took it out to look at it. Gradually, he was drawn to the gentle light and colors, and the presence of the woman who seemed to speak quietly, and he cherished it, calling it "Long-legged Miss." From there, he gradually continued to collect only what he liked, and over time, a wide-ranging collection was formed, from Impressionism to modern Japanese paintings. And in 2000 (Heisei 12), after passing his 70th birthday, Uehara donated his collection and established the Uehara Museum of Modern Art. The paintings gathered under the gaze of a single collector, like the gaze of Derain's "Nude," exude a sense of kindness and gentleness. This exhibition listens to the stories told by each painting in the Uehara collection. We will introduce the stories that the paintings have followed, such as Monet's "House in the Snow and Mount Corsairs," which was inspired by the Ukiyo-e Mount Fuji and was given to a Japanese collector, and Van Gogh's phantom early work "Reaper with a Sickle (after Millet)," which Uehara happened to encounter in Japan. We hope you will enjoy the Uehara collection in the land of Izu and weave your own stories.
