Young artists began to move away from conventional formats such as painting and sculpture, and turned to a fundamental questioning of human perception and the conditions of existence. Enokura Koji, a major figure in this shift, is often associated with the movement known as Mono-ha (the \u201cSchool of Things\u201d).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the course of his career, Enokura produced a diverse body of work including installations, photography, prints, and paintings. His explorations of physical phenomena such as permeation and contact evoke bodily awareness, directing attention to our own physical existence in the world. He exhibited in major international shows such as the Paris Biennale and the Venice Biennale, remaining a prominent presence in contemporary art, and later taught at Tokyo University of the Arts, where he had a significant impact on younger generations of artists. This exhibition traces the development and scope of his practice through his own works as well as newly acquired works by Shirai Mio and Toyoshima Yasuko, both of whom were his students.&nbsp;<\/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\/2025\/11\/1e1e551f1939e697c8a362c8e23a60db.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n            List of Works (PDF:181KB)        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\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\/2026\/01\/g4_enokura.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n            &#8220;Enokura Koji: A Retrospective&#8221; pamphlet\uff08PDF\uff1a8MB\uff09        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"873\" src=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/exhibitions_r7-2-g4_01-1024x873.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-172501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/exhibitions_r7-2-g4_01-1024x873.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/exhibitions_r7-2-g4_01-200x170.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/exhibitions_r7-2-g4_01-768x655.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.momat.go.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/exhibitions_r7-2-g4_01.jpg 1530w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Enokura Koji,<em> Interference (STORY-No.18)<\/em>, 1991&nbsp;<br>Photography by Otani Ichiro&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"section1-2\">Hours &amp; Admissions<\/h2>\n\n\n<dl class=\"momat-dl\">\n    \n<div class=\"momat-dl__item\">\n    <dt class=\"momat-dl__heading\">Location<\/dt>\n    <dd class=\"momat-dl__content\">\n        \n\n<p>Gallery 4 (2nd floor)<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/dd>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"momat-dl__item\">\n    <dt class=\"momat-dl__heading\">Date<\/dt>\n    <dd class=\"momat-dl__content\">\n        \n\n<p>November 5, 2025\u2013February 8, 2026<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/dd>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"momat-dl__item\">\n    <dt class=\"momat-dl__heading\">Closed<\/dt>\n    <dd class=\"momat-dl__content\">\n        \n\n<p>Mondays (except November 15, January 12), December 28\u2013January 1, and January 13<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/dd>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"momat-dl__item\">\n    <dt class=\"momat-dl__heading\">Time<\/dt>\n    <dd class=\"momat-dl__content\">\n        \n\n<p>10 am<strong>\u2013<\/strong>5 pm (Fridays and Saturdays open until 8 pm)\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Last admission: 30 minutes before closing.\u202f<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n    <\/dd>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"momat-dl__item\">\n    <dt class=\"momat-dl__heading\">Admission<\/dt>\n    <dd class=\"momat-dl__content\">\n        \n\n<p>Adults \u00a5500 (400)<br>College and university students \u00a5250 (200)\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The price in brackets is for the group of 20 persons or more.
