Description +-

No explicit condemnation of male-male sexuality appears in the Shinto canon. The introduction of Buddhism in Japan in the 7th century brought in other perceptions on gay culture, but it was not stigmatised as it is within other religions. Samurai warriors were often away from home for a long period of time, surrounded mostly by men. There are many gay love letters of the Samurai, preserved. Criminalisation of homosexuality was a brief episode in Japanese society. This painting has the intention to throw another kind of light to the idea about the masculine samurai: to show them in a moment of tenderness and against the most popular picture.

Artist +-

Tamara Berger 

Tamara Berger was born in Belgrade, Serbia, and currently lives with her family in Germany. Alongside painting and exhibiting her work around Germany, Berger teaches art and travels often to artist residencies. One of her primary focuses is the role of a woman in traditional art, and in contemporary societies. American Philosopher Judith Butler and her idea of gender as performative and fluid are often source of inspiration in Berger's works. She questions the concept of binary, and speaks for gender equality, and for the rights of women and queer people. Berger is great admirer of Asian cultures, with a big interest in Japanese culture in particular. She views this artistic interest as similar to that of Vincent van Gogh, who she uses as a point of inspiration.

Donation +-

Based on our agreement with the artist, 15% of the pre-VAT price excluding frames will be donated to support the social movement. Donation will be given to support Frauenhauskoordinierung.
