Catalog of an exhibition held in 1980. Frankel had the rare treat of attending Kubota's first one-man exhibition held in Mikimoto Hall in the Ginza, Tokyo. Frankel marveled at the beauty of his creations & decided it would be a privilege to introduce him & his work to the American public. Kubota answered Frankel's questions concerning the evolvement of his work & its significance within the historical context of ''Tsujigahana'' dyeing of fabrics for kimonos. Contents of this catalog: The Art of ''Itchiku Tsujigahana'' Dyeing, by Tetsuro Kitamura; ''Tsujigahana'' & Itchiku Kubota, by Tomoyuki Yamanobe; ''Itchiku Tsujigahana,'' by Itchiku Kubota; Catalogue; & Glossary. Black & white photos of Kubota and full-color photos of his kimonos.
