Artists

Ryusei Kishida
In March 2021, the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto acquired 42 works by the painter Ryusei Kishida. This brings the total number of Kishida’s works in the museum collection to approximately 50 items, providing a complete overview of the artist’s creative activities and exemplifying every stylistic change that occurred from the beginning to the end of his career.

In this exhibit, designed to commemorate these new acquisitions, the museum presents all of the works by Kishida in the collection. It also focuses on pieces such as "Self-Portrait Wearing a Coat," which was formerly part of the Yoshiyuki Morimura Collection, and "Still Life (A Bottle, an Apple and a Teacup)," which was part of Morimura’s younger brother Saburo Matsukata’s collection, while taking a look back at the role of such collections in honoring the work of Kishida.
