The woodblock prints could be cheaply mass-produced, but the <em>Nikuhitsuga<\/em> were carefully handpainted, meaning that they are unique. This exhibition collects 170 <em>Nikuhitsuga<\/em> (otherwise known as <em>Nikuhitsu Ukiyo-e<\/em>) painted by 68 different artists, and uses them to trace the history of this art form. Of particular interest to many are the <em>shunga<\/em>, <em>ukiyo-e<\/em> erotica. This part of the exhibition (18+ only) includes paintings of subjects from all strata of society, from <em>geisha<\/em> and customer to husband and wife.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2606 Fukuoka Now has ONE PAIR OF TICKETS for this exhibit to GIVE AWAY! \u2606<\/strong><br \/>\nSee these beautiful paintings for yourself by entering through <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/fn-giveaway\" target=\"_blank\">this form<\/a>.
