Society for Japanese Arts


The Society for Japanese Arts was founded in 1937 by a group of Dutch collectors of, and dealers in, Japanese art. Originally called The Society for Japanese Arts and Crafts, the society became international in the 1960s. It currently has over 800 members in 29 countries. The Society sponsors lectures, exhibitions and publications. It awards grants through the Heinz M. Kaempfer Fund, and publishes the journal Andon in English, which provides results of in-depth research about various ukiyo-e artists, e.g. Utagawa Kunisada III.
