The Tempera technique was widely used in the Western Medieval. We
can enjoy the brilliant colors even now in altarpieces and illuminated
manuscripts from the time. We at MMAT have organized workshops
with the painter, Yasuo ISHIHARA, 7 times since 1992 to explore this
technique. In this Exhibition, we will focus on "Il libro dell’arte" that
transmits this Medieval technique, and will display the grand classic
work of “Reproduction” created by ISHIHARA in Italy together with the
process samples, colors and other materials to illustrate the charm of
Tempera paintings.
