"Sceneries of Water - From Monet and Daikan to the Present Day" Exhibition
This event has ended.
At Yokohama Museum Of Art
Media: Painting, Photography, Video installation
Sometimes we are relaxed by a calm scene of a water pond with floating water lilies, and sometimes we behold a roaring waterfall in awe. Sceneries of water never leave us without some feeling. This exhibition holds approximately 100 works of various time periods, countries and media.
Since the seaport opened in Yokohama, the city has cultivated its own original culture. Yokohama is celebrating the 120th anniversary of its founding. With Yokohama being the origin of Japan's modern water system, the Yokohama Museum is holding this exhibition to reveal the beauty of the water that surrounds us.

梅雨かあ～ムシムシするなあ～、夏かあ～アスファルトの地熱でもわもわするなあ～、と想像してへこたれている場合ではありません。
どんよりとした空の横浜だったけど、展示されている作品をみながらすごく清々しくて、気持ち良かった。水というくくりでまとまった作品たちだけど、写真・ペインティング・映像・写真と何でもあって、また伝えてくるものも清涼感・エロティックさ・ちょっとした恐怖などさまざま。水は液体にも、気体にも、固体にもなる。それとちょっとにてるかなあと思った。
この時期にぴったりの展示だと思った。
