Netsuke & Japanese Art Online
Research Center is a
non-profit organization
dedicated to the study and
research of netsuke art for the
global community through the
development and implementation
of the Netsuke Online Research
Project.
The Netsuke Online Research
Project seeks to establish a
global electronic repository for
the study and research of both
antique and contemporary netsuke
and related Japanese Art works
to promulgate its poetic art
form and esthetic value in
addition to its intrinsic value
as collectable super-miniature
carvings by artists translating
their visions of our lives into
works of beauty.
As a result of the outflow of
netsuke from Japan, there has
developed a global network of
collectors and historians who
have done considerable research
on these treasures. The goal of
the Netsuke Online Center is to
facilitate the research,
findings and the sharing of
ideas of these unique, miniature
sculptures.
The
Netsuke & Japanese Art
Online Research Center website
demonstrates how a netsuke
database can be used to support
online research and facilitate
communication and collaboration
within the netsuke community.
