Kingdom of Beauty: Mingei and the Politics of Folk Art in Imperial Japan

Brandt's book is really great. This is a solid analysis of the folk art culture that arises out of imperial Japan, through its colonization of Korea. The idea of 'Oriental Orientalism' is interesting because it renders orienatlism as a global phenomenon not limited to the single direction Europe >> Other. Orientalism is instead a feature of imperialism in general. She could spend more time discussing labour in these movements, or aesthetics, but the book is worth reading regardless.
