Dumb Type, a progressive Japanese art collective, was selected to exhibit in the Japan Pavilion at the 59th International Art Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. Since its formation in 1984, Dumb Type has, using its unique methods, woven the relationship between the body and technology into its performance works and installations. Having recently welcomed Sakamoto Ryuichi into the group, Dumb Type presented a new work, 2022, at the Venice Biennale. This work, which spurs thought about how people communicate and perceive the world in the “post-truth” age, will be recomposed at the Artizon Museum as 2022: remap.

The Artizon Museum, formerly the Bridgestone Museum of Art (opened in 1952), opened in January 2020 as a new art museum in Kyobashi, Tokyo. Artizon is a word coined from the combination of the words "art" and "horizon," and expresses the museum's intention to give visitors a sense of the horizons of art that are opening up the future. The concept is to "experience creation". In addition to the highly acclaimed Impressionist and Japanese modern Western-style paintings, the Ishibashi Foundation has expanded the scope and depth of its Collection to include post-war abstract paintings and modern Japanese art. The exhibition rooms are located on three floors from the 4th to the 6th and are equipped with the latest lighting and air-conditioning systems to provide a wide variety of art experiences.
