The 40-Year History of Yamanashi Prefectural Museum of Art

Yamanashi Prefectural Museum of Art
Finished
This exhibition examines the 40-year history of Yamanashi Prefectural Museum of Art, which opened in 1978, through various collections and materials organized into four chapters. The first section focuses on before the museum was built, covering the construction period and right up to when it opened to the public with a display of Jean-François Millet’s “The Sower.” The photographic documentation on show here has rarely been put on public view. Following this, section two is based on “favorite works” in the collection as voted by viewers. Section 3 revisits special exhibitions that have been held to date, considering the significance of these shows through print matter and documentary photographs. Finally, the last section addresses the development of the museum’s educational projects.
