"I Love Art" Exhibition
Closes in 14 days
At Watari-um, The Watari Museum of Contemporary Art
Media: Painting, Other, Sculpture, Installation, Other
This is an exhibition of 108 works focusing mostly on previously unexhibited pieces, such as a 1988 work by Julian Schnabel (America, 1951-), who has in recent years won much attention for his work as a film director, drawings by John Cage (America, 1912-1992), and works by leading Japanese contemporary copperplate printmaking artist Tetsuro Komai (Japan, 1920-1976). Keith Haring's wall murals, which have covered signboards for more than 10 years now, will also be on display.
In addition to these works, encounters with the artists will share with visitors the creative process and various hitherto unknown anecdotes behind the art - the "collection stories".
Related events are also scheduled to be held. See website for details.

同時代のアーティストと親交のあった人の言葉と、その人の選んだ作品が同じ場所で観れる、とても貴重な展覧会です。

Good exhibition, nice space, good library! As it is a restrospective exhibition, texts are very important. However there's no japanese in the explaination texts, so we'll need to learn japanese quite seriously! 回顧展として面白かった。空間もよかった。本屋も行く価値があるよ~。
correction, I mean, no english texts.
