Orientalism: Representations of Japan in “Western” arts Two centuries of japonisme and japonesque exoticism in the “Western” fashion ⌘
Exoticism • Exoticism – employing elements of an “exotic” (e. g. , Oriental) culture in a different cultural context. • Exoticism in arts, fine and decorative – “the presentation of one culture for consumption by another — [i]s not always ‘bad. ’ It [i]s, in fact, a way to promote cultural dialogue” (Alden Jones). http: //thesmartset. com/article 08060708/ • Note the fine line between utilizing elements of an “exotic” culture to enrich the borrowing culture and cultural appropriation.
Exoticism in “Western” Fashion • Developed intensively since mid-XIX century, when long-distance travelling became more common and new experiences affected “Western” tastes. • Aesthetic fascination with the Other.
Exoticism in “Western” Fashion • Luxury and opulence of “Orient” in European imagination. • Borrowed “Oriental” types of fabric; textile prints; cuts and lines; decorative elements, etc.
