A number of its pieces have appeared in exhibitions featuring crafts made of wood, bamboo, and tusk and horn ivory. In particular, the collection has received its widest exposure outside the National Museum at the annual spring exhibitions of "Ivory Carving of Japan" sponsored by the Japan Ivory Carving Association (Nihon Zoge Chokoku Kai) at the Ueno no Mori Art Museum in Tokyo. The first exhibition was held in 1978 and, since then, more than half of the Go Collection has been displayed. The present volume marks the first time the entire Go Collection will appear in book form, an event long awaited by scholars and admirers of netsuke alike, and also the first time that the collection will be shown in full color. It is hoped that this book will foster a better understanding of netsuke, which is in keeping with Go Seinosuke's intention." excerpt from the introduction by Hirokazu Arakawa.
