This exhibition showcases over 70 works of art from Europe, the US, and Japan from the collection of the Fukuoka Art Museum, currently undergoing renovation. From surrealism to post-war abstract to pop art, the exhibition covers a wide range of European and American art history, while also showing pieces from Japanese post-war movements such as Group Kyushu and Gutai. This is a unique opportunity to view works from the avant-garde Group Kyushu which stood in contrast to the dominant art scene in Tokyo.
