During the Edo period (1603-1868) Japan was "closed" to almost all

forms of interaction with foreign countries.
Starting from the Meiji Era (1868-1912), western culture began to have a great influence on every sphere of Japanese society, including education.
The concept of "art" did not exist in Japanese culture until the Meiji Era.

cultivate critical attitude toward visual culture;

Conclusion
In the beginning of the 20th century the Japanese art education

was influenced by the ideas from the western countries, which included the concept of freedom and creativity.
A strong impact was made by such movements as the Free-Expression Movement in 1920s and the Creative Aesthetic Education Movement in the 1950-1960s.
From around 1965 Japan began to develop its own perpective in art education.
Recently the major issues of art education have been concentrated on visual culture. Appropriate understanding of popular culture is taught.
