BRUNSWICK — An exhibition exploring themes of the supernatural and otherworldly creatures in woodblock prints from the 19th century will open Friday at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art.
The exhibition includes 40 woodblock prints from the private collection of Cornell University faculty member Dan McKee.
A selection of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art’s collection of netsuke — small ivory carvings that depict demons and animals — will be also displayed and complement the prints on view. The exhibit will occur through March 3, 2013.
