International exhibitions

こちらはポール・ジャクリエの国際的な展覧会活動の概要です。生前には海外での展示は限られていましたが、没後に国際的評価が高まりました。転機となったのは1982年、アメリカ・パサデナのパシフィック・アジア美術館での展覧会で、その図録『The Prints of Paul Jacoulet』(著:リチャード・マイルズ)は今も広く参照されています。2013年にはパリのケ・ブランリ美術館で大規模な展示が行われ、彼の作品が国際的な文脈で再評価されました。直近では、オーストラリア・ブリスベンのQAGOMAで2026年1月まで開催中の展覧会に作品が展示されています。

 Paul Jacoulet’s international exhibition history reflects the evolving global appreciation of his work. During his lifetime, opportunities to exhibit outside Japan were limited, with most shows concentrated domestically. It wasn’t until after his death in 1960 that significant international recognition began to take shape.

A turning point came in 1982 with the landmark exhibition at the Pacific Asia Museum in Pasadena, California. The accompanying catalog by Richard Miles, The Prints of Paul Jacoulet, became a foundational text and remains widely cited by scholars and collectors alike.

Another major milestone was the 2013 exhibition at the Musée du quai Branly in Paris, which situated Jacoulet’s work within a broader narrative of global artistic exchange and modern print culture.

The momentum has continued into the 21st century. Most recently, Jacoulet’s prints are featured in the Birds of Passage exhibition at the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) in Brisbane, Australia, running through January 2026. This exhibition underscores the enduring and widening international interest in Jacoulet’s distinctive artistic legacy.

Exhibitions are divided into those during his lifetime and after his passing.
