Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Ohio State University, 1995.

This research contains ethnographic case studies of Japanese women considered contemporary artists by their peers, families, and neighbors. Eleven women in Japan are described from extended interviews and visits to their studios, homes, galleries, and art associations. Japanese male arts professionals and husbands provide some views. The women artists define themselves and their development in their cultural context including family and community support or pressure. Their viewpoints point out individual differences in personality, rural and urban lifestyles, age and education. The reality of female power is compared to the stereotype of female passiveness.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This research contains ethnographic case studies of Japanese women considered contemporary artists by their peers, families, and neighbors. Eleven women in Japan are described from extended interviews and visits to their studios, homes, galleries, and art associations. Japanese male arts professionals and husbands provide some views. The women artists define themselves and their development in their cultural context including family and community support or pressure. Their viewpoints point out individual differences in personality, rural and urban lifestyles, age and education. The reality of female power is compared to the stereotype of female passiveness.
520 $a Readings in art education, history, criticism, and anthropology inform the study. Ethnographic in nature, it provides descriptive data needed for understanding, not to quantify or generalize. Interviews, observations, journals, literature, photos, and participation comprise the data. Theories from feminist methodology offer a distinct perspective and background for analysis.
520 $a Japanese women have significant power at home, especially financial, but less public power. They are better educated and travelled than their predecessors, marrying later. Japanese men and women tend to lead parallel lives; recently Japanese women are discontent with that order. Those who do not work at a company have time to follow other interests such as painting, travel, and classes. Women artists may support themselves or benefit from their husband's jobs, teaching art jyuku. Art jyuku, craft schools, art universities, artists associations and galleries are unique and hierarchical, obliging women artists to devise unique forms of resistance or of profiting. Using a Western art style may symbolize individualism and independence. Conflict exists in the arts because alternatives to hierarchy and group orientation are being tested at the same time that Japanese identity and the concept of tradition are being redefined and adjusted.
520 $a This study will help those wanting to add to their knowledge of Japanese culture, women's issues across cultures, and experiential classroom methods such as ethnographic research. Recommendations are made for curriculum adaptation using knowledge of Japanese culture and how artists develop. Suggestions for related cross-cultural research are included.
