KANSUKE YAMAMOTO / CARNET BLEU

About the artwork

Kansuke Yamamoto’s Buddhist Temple’s Birdcage (1940), reproduced on a framed art poster.
In Buddhist Temple’s Birdcage (1940), a black telephone sits inside a white birdcage. The Getty has suggested that the photograph may allude to restrictions on expression in Japan at the time. A different version of the composition is in the Nagoya City Art Museum collection.

A contemporary product featuring a reproduction of the artwork, not an original photographic print by the artist.
