Japan boasts a rich history of tattooing that flourished most visibly in the Tokugawa period (1603-1867), when generations of horishi tattoo artists hand-carved intricate full-body tattoos of magnificent dragons, intrepid carp, and courageous heroes upon the flesh of the country’s working classes. In spite of this time-honored tradition, having a tattoo in Japan can prevent one from entering onsen (hot springs), public baths, pools, beaches, and gyms, and can even hinder employment and marriage prospects.

Join the Asian Studies Center for an exciting opportunity to view North Korean films rarely shown to the American public.

Ever wanted to live in Japan for a year or maybe more with a full time job? Teaching English in Japan may be for you. There will be an informational seminar on The Japan Exchange and Teaching Programme (JET) on Wednesday October 12 in 4217 Posvar Hall, giving out all the details you'll need to know.

The Warhol partners with The Japan-America Society of Pennsylvania and The Asian Studies Center of the University of Pittsburgh to welcome experimental theater artist and dancer Takao Kawaguchi with his solo performance tribute to legendary Japanese butoh dancer Kazuo Ohno, who passed away in 2010 at age 103. Kawaguchi mirrors and re-constructs Ohno’s movements based on video recordings of performances of early masterpieces including Admiring La Argentina (1977), My Mother (1981), and Dead Sea, Ghost, Wienerwaltz (1985).
