About the Exhibition

Opened on November 15, 1977 as an annex to the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, the Crafts Gallery now maintains a collection of 2,550 pieces (compared to 476 in 1977), and has expanded its exhibition activities beyond the borders of styles and artists’ nationalities. This exhibition illustrates some episodes before the Gallery’s opening, and reviews its past exhibitions and collection building to examine the role the Gallery has played in modern art.
