Yasunari Kawabata and Riichi Yokomitsu were two writers active throughout Japan during the early 20th century. With a handful of other young writers, the two men started a prewar Japanese literary group called Shinkankakuha, which focused on exploring “new impressions” or “new perceptions” in the writing of Japanese literature. This exhibition consists of works related to this pioneering, anti-establishment movement.
