Also, it is one of the foremost exhibitions in Japan, tracing the arc of Japanese modern and contemporary art from the end of the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century to the present day through a series of 12 rooms, each with its own specific theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This term, we are pleased to offer another abundant lineup of works. To focus on just two of the highlights: first, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, Rooms 2 through 4 on the 4th floor survey relationships between the earthquake and art, highlighting topics such as the devastation of the affected area, reconstruction, and social fragmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, Rooms 7 through 9 on the 3rd floor feature the work of photographer Ohtsuji Kiyoji, who would have turned 100 this year were he still alive. Ohtsuji\u2019s avant-garde photographs earned acclaim in the immediate postwar years, and here we also showcase his importance as a writer and educator along with works of art closely associated with him.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n    <div class=\"momat-button-invert-download\">\n        <a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-1MOMATCollectionList-e-1.pdf\">\n            MOMAT Collection List (PDF, 320K)        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n    <div class=\"momat-button-arrow\">\n        <a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"15153\">\n            Introduction to the Collection        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">National Important Cultural Properties on display<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo Collection (main building) contains 18 items that have been designated by the Japanese government as National Important Cultural Properties.

Having been stirred to action by the great wave of art from the West, in the 20th century personal expression by countless individuals began to emerge as if surging up from below, and the shape of \u201cmodernity\u201d gradually came into view. One thing that can surely be said of the modern era is that it was the age of the individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While such individual artists were too numerous to count, the Bunten exhibition (sponsored by the Ministry of Education) was established in 1907 in an effort to bring this surge under control and establish state-sanctioned forms of art. The MOMAT collection traces its origins back to 1907, the year of the Bunten\u2019s inception. In this room, we have selected masterworks from the museum&#8217;s collection that convey various aspects of the early 20th century prior to the Great Kanto Earthquake (1923). Some artists sought to connect Western art to pre-modern traditional art, others sought to place Western techniques at the core of their practice, still others to carve out entirely original modes\u2026 Witness the tumultuous advent of the modern era in Japan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 2<small> 100th Anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake: Art of 1923<\/small><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-9\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00280.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"524\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00280.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00280.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00280-200x131.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00280-768x503.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tsuda Seifu, <em>Woman of Izumozaki<\/em>, 1923<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake, which struck the Kanto region at 11:58 AM on September 1, 1923, with its epicenter offshore in Sagami Bay and a magnitude of 7.9. A heavy rain that had been falling the night before had abated, and on a fiercely windy autumn Saturday, the Takenodai Exhibition Hall in Ueno Park was bustling with people as the 10th revived Inten Exhibition and the Nika Exhibition both opened their doors to the public. Just as artists were gathering, there was a violent jolt and the exhibitions were immediately halted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the exhibition hall survived the collapse, at both venues sculptures fell from their pedestals, breaking and lying strewn about, while paintings tilted and frames were twisted. One visitor to the Nika Exhibition recalled, \u201cThe scene was like looking at a Cubist painting spinning around in circles.\u201d Works that had survived unharmed were gathered, and both exhibitions reopened in October in Osaka, with the revived Inten subsequently traveling to Hosei University and the Nika Exhibition to Kyoto and Fukuoka. Here we present works from the museum\u2019s collection that appeared in the exhibitions at the time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 3 <small>100th Anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake: Devastation and Recovery<\/small><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-12\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00705.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"586\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00705.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00705.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00705-200x147.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00705-768x563.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Murayama Tomoyoshi, <em>Construction<\/em>, 1925<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>The Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 caused massive and widespread damage, affecting nearly two million people, leaving 100,000 dead or missing, 100,000 houses completely destroyed, and 210,000 houses burned to the ground. In an era before TV or the internet, artists took up brushes and cameras to document the devastation. Eventually they resumed exhibition of their works and became involved in the recovery effort in various ways, such as proposing designs for barracks that housed evacuees, making proposals for urban redevelopment, and depicting the reconstruction process. The art critic Takumi Hideo later wrote of the impact of the Great Kanto Earthquake on art: \u201cSimilarly to the way in which Dada arose out of the rubble of World War I, the devastation caused by the Great Kanto Earthquake provided fertile soil for the emergence of Dada-like tendencies. The avant-garde flourished rapidly during the period of psychological turmoil that followed the earthquake\u201d (<em>Kindai Nippon Yoga no Tenkai<\/em> [Development of Western-Style Painting in Modern Japan], Shoshinsha, 1964). Avant-garde art, which had been emerging even before the earthquake, was accelerated in the aftermath of the disaster.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 4 <small>100th Anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake: Social Distortion<\/small><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-15\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00841.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"776\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00841.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00841.jpg 776w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00841-200x155.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00841-768x594.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 776px) 100vw, 776px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mochizuki Haruo, <em>Reminiscence of Yamamoto Chuhei<\/em>, 1931<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>While postwar recovery led to the development of modern urban culture, strains in the fabric of society gradually became evident as well. Violence on the part of the authorities and vigilante groups in the wake of the earthquake gave rise to anti-establishment discourse, and artists who were inclined toward anarchism and socialism eventually adhered to Proletarian Art. Many of these artists were part of emerging Taisho Era (1912-1926) art movements such as Mirai-ha Bijutsu Kyokai (the Futurist Art Association), Action, MAVO, Daiichi Sakka Domei (DSD, the Primary Artists\u2019 Alliance), and subsequently Sanka, which united these groups. In 1929 the Japan Proletarian Artists\u2019 League was formed, and from 1928 to 1932 the Proletarian Art Exhibition was held, presenting many works that depicted workers\u2019 demonstrations and strikes and the factories where they toiled. The artists\u2019 works spanned a wide range of genres, including not only paintings and sculptures but also prints, posters, plays, manga, and publications. However, after a crackdown including amendment of the Maintenance of Public Order Act and police repression, the Proletarian Art movement had subsided by 1934.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 5 <small>Forms That Look Like Something<\/small><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-18\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"200\" height=\"133\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0233281-200x133.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0233281-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0233281-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0233281.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Alexander Calder, <em>The Monster<\/em>, c.1939<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>In conjunction with the exhibition of Antoni Gaud\u00ed, known for his visionary architecture inspired by natural forms, this room features works that are abstract and contain biomorphic imagery that evokes plants, animals, and human forms. The term \u201cbiomorphic,\u201d meaning \u201cresembling the forms of living organisms,\u201d came to be used in the art world in the 1930s to describe a trend toward the non-geometric in abstract art. This term was particularly applied to forms in the Surrealist painting and sculpture of Joan Mir\u00f3, Jean (Hans) Arp, Alexander Calder, and others. A similar tendency appears in the works of Japanese Surrealists such as Okamoto Taro and Terada Masaaki. These works feature a wealth of forms that oscillate between the inorganic and the organic, as if in a constant state of flux. They represent endeavors to have the abstract and the figurative coexist in a work of art, or the search for images that are unconstrained by such frameworks altogether.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3F (Third floor)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Room 6-8 1940s-1960s\u3000From the Beginning to the Middle of the Showa Period<br>Room 9 Photography and Video<br>Room 10 <em>Nihon-ga<\/em> (Japanese-style Painting)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Room to Consider the Building (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/en\/magazine\/033\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sol LeWitt, <em>Wall Drawing#769<\/em><\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 6 <small>Painting, 1920s-1940s: Focus on the Figurative<\/small><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-21\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00019.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"470\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00019.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00019.jpg 470w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O00019-118x200.jpg 118w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">AI-MITSU, <em>Self-Portrait<\/em>, 1944<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>In Japan, the years from around 1920 through the 1940s were rife with destruction and chaos caused by wars and natural disasters. In the midst of this tumult, there were artists who sought to return to their own personal perspectives, and to explore the fundamental question of what they ought to express.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This tendency coincided with a broad social shift toward reverence for tradition and reversion to Japanese values, and was part of a campaign to cultivate quintessentially Japanese painting that did not merely imitate Western works. For example, Umehara Ryuzaburo embraced traditional painting materials such as <em>iwa-enogu<\/em> (mineral pigments) for the unique colors they produced, while in Sakamoto Hanjiro\u2019s use of pale hues and subtle control of tones to depict a horse quietly emerging from the background, we see an East Asian view of nature that integrates the subject and the surrounding environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Matsumoto Shunsuke\u2019s tranquil world of transparent color fields and black line drawing seems to reflect a solitary inner life, and Ai-Mitsu\u2019s <em>Self-Portrait<\/em>, which depicts the artist standing with dignity and gazing into the distance against a dark background, represents his determined struggle not to lose himself even amid the bleak and despairing wartime years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 7  Experiments and Collaborations 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Ohtsuji Kiyoji (1)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-24\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144054-e1682062946447.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139823\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ohtsuji Kiyoji, <em>Portrait of the Artist, Fukushima Hideko from <\/em>Ohtsuji Kiyoji Portfolio, 1950<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Ohtsuji Kiyoji was a photographer who gained attention for avant-garde works shortly after World War II, and later was influential as a writer and educator in the photography field. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birth, this exhibition of works from the museum\u2019s collection dedicates three rooms to tracing some of the arc of Ohtsuji\u2019s career, which is closely tied to the development of postwar art in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first room, entitled \u201cExperiments and Collaborations,\u201d showcases two creative groups in which Ohtsuji participated in the 1950s: Jikken Kobo (Experimental Workshop) and Gurafikku Shudan (Graphic Group). Jikken Kobo was formed in 1951 by a group of young artists, musicians, and other creators in the circle of the poet and critic Shuzo Takiguchi, and was known for unconventional, interdisciplinary activities including collaborative stage productions. Ohtsuji participated in Jikken Kobo beginning in 1953, and photographed the members and their activities in diverse situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same year, Ohtsuji also took part in formation of Graphic Group, a group of graphic designers, painters, and photographers who collectively organized and produced exhibitions and publications. They also worked in a spirit of experimentation and collaboration that included innovative advertising proposals and unique films.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 8  Gutai and Matter 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Ohtsuji Kiyoji (2)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-27\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"133\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0190041-133x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0190041-133x200.jpg 133w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0190041.jpg 460w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 133px) 100vw, 133px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ohtsuji Kiyoji, <em>Tanaka Atsuko<\/em>, 1956<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Ohtsuji Kiyoji engaged in many photography projects involving fine art, including his work for the art magazine <em>Geijutsu Shincho<\/em>, from which he received commissions for several years beginning in 1956. In this room, we focus on artists and works documented by Ohtsuji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gutai Art Association (usually known simply as \u201cGutai\u201d), which sought \u201cto present concrete proof that our spirit is free,\u201d had a major impact on the art of its time. Ohtsuji\u2019s photographs of the Kansai-based group\u2019s 2nd Gutai Art Exhibition, held in Tokyo in 1956, capture this freedom of spirit, unconfined by conventional frameworks of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 10th Tokyo Biennale: Between Man and Matter (1970) was a seminal exhibition that first showcased the artists who became known as Mono-ha (the \u201cSchool of Things\u201d) alongside their international contemporaries. Ohtsuji documented this exhibition from the installation of works onward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ohtsuji, whose work was initially inspired by the Surrealist concept of the object, was a photographer deeply concerned with the presence of things. The development of postwar art in Japan, which can be traced using Ohtsuji\u2019s photographs as a through-line, shows a consistent lineage of exploration of \u201cthings\u201d and \u201cmatter.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 9  Uehara 2-chome 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Ohtsuji Kiyoji (3)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-30\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144095.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"484\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144095.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139818\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144095.jpg 484w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144095-200x198.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/S0144095-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 484px) 100vw, 484px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ohtsuji Kiyoji, <em>Ah, They Were There!<\/em>, 1975<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>\u201cWhat sorts of experiments do I want to conduct?

Each installment consisted of his own photographs and text, and focused on what is or is not captured in a photograph, and what it conveys or does not convey to the viewer, using himself as an experimental subject. The series, which begins with thoughts about a photograph of objects on his work desk at home, ends with documentation of the demolition of his house in order to build a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from his commissioned works, Ohtsuji rarely established themes and went to specific places for the purpose of taking photographs, but he shot many works in and around his home in Uehara, where he resided for many years. In this room, the special exhibit on Ohtsuji concludes with a feature titled \u201cUehara 2-chome,\u201d which highlights the gaze he cast on his immediate surroundings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 10 <small>New Acquisition and Special Exhibition: Ikeda Shoen, <em>Way Back<\/em> (1)<\/small>  (2023.5.23-7.17)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-33\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc-1024x707.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc-1024x707.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139907\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc-1024x707.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc-200x138.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc-768x531.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7e5f0a5bd64b5afa34a52fb9067d08bc.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ikeda Shoen, <em>Way Back<\/em>, 1915<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Ikeda Shoen (1886-1917) was born Sakakibara Yuriko, and was given the artist\u2019s name Shoen by Mizuno Toshikata (1866-1908), under whom she studied, in honor of Uemura Shoen (1875-1949), also a female Nihonga (Japanese-style painting) artist. At the Bunten (Ministry of Education exhibition), the younger Shoen outshone Kaburaki Kiyokata (1878-1972) and her future husband Ikeda Terukata (1883-1921), both of whom studied under the same teacher, to win third prize each year from the first to the fourth exhibitions in succession, becoming a rising star. The romanticism of her works based on stories, and the dreamy expressions and fraught appearances of women in love, made her paintings extremely popular among women at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Way Back<\/em>, newly acquired by the museum in 2022, was exhibited at the 9th Bunten in 1915 in the so-called \u201c<em>Bijinga<\/em> Room,\u201d dedicated exclusively to <em>bijinga<\/em> (paintings of beautiful women). When first exhibited it was a six-panel folding screen, but today, with the loss of the two panels on the left, it has become a four-panel screen. Fortunately, however, the inimitable allure of Shoen\u2019s charming female figures has not been lost.

Labyrinths are known to have existed in most ancient cultures, and in the West, labyrinths at the entrances to medieval churches symbolized human movement through life toward the divine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Labyrinths originally had a single path leading to the center, but the Renaissance saw the emergence of branching labyrinths that led people astray. Labyrinths, inside which we cannot locate the exit or where we are in relation to the whole, have fascinated people in all eras and cultures. Many labyrinths appear in works of art, including those of M.C. Escher. Here we bring together works that beckon the eye into labyrinths, from works depicting them to paintings with labyrinthine structures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room 12 Visual Labyrinths<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-43\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01077-200x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01077-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01077-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01077.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Usami Keiji, <em>Dome, The Outside Opening in the Inside<\/em>, 1997<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Like the preceding room, this room contains labyrinthine paintings, sculptures, and video works that draw you further in the more you look at them. Here, whether a work is figurative or abstract is of no importance. Works depicting recognizable objects fascinate viewers by creating fictions in a way that only paintings can, for instance by rendering things in the most minute detail, or by placing objects in contrasting combinations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, in abstract works, various elements including the concept, the creative process, and movements of the artist\u2019s hand intertwine to stimulate our visual senses. This is true not only of paintings, but also of sculptures and videos. In addition to spatial elements such as form, color, and composition, the time a work took to create and the time spent viewing it may also be important factors in constructing an artistic labyrinth. We invite you to lose yourself in these labyrinths with no exits, and savor the artworks to the last detail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Room13(Gallery 4) Before and After the Catastrophe<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-46\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"162\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01290-162x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-139858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01290-162x200.jpg 162w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/O01290.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 162px) 100vw, 162px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ishikawa Yukie,<em> Impermanence Seijyo<\/em>, 2014<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>This term, on the 4th floor, the MOMAT Collection focuses on the Great Kanto Earthquake that struck 100 years ago this year. In this final room, we present works created before and after the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. When placed side by side, the works seem to have commonalities in terms of bright, contemporary colors and a progression from personal, inward-looking expression to social concern, but how might they appear differently when grouped according to the theme of the earthquake?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience of a major disaster lingers in our memories as a dividing line between before and after. For example, when we see Kawaguchi Tatsuo\u2019s <em>Dark Box 2009<\/em>, which encloses darkness, it may occur to us that the box contains air from before \u201cthat day,\u201d or we may associate the faces painted by Kato Izumi with the devastated post-quake landscape. Of course not all of these works relate to the disaster, but we hope that this exhibit will offer opportunities to reflect not so much on how works themselves change over time, but on how changes in viewers\u2019 perceptions can affect the way the works appear.
