Hekinan City Tatsukichi Fujii Museum of Contemporary Art Renewal Commemorative Exhibition "Treasure Chest of the Blue Sea"

Hekinan City Tatsukichi Fujii Museum of Contemporary Art

Finished

Art collection activities are one of the most important pillars in the formation of the museum. The museum has been striving to collect works of Tatsukichi Fujii, an avant-garde figure in the history of modern Japanese crafts, and his views on art, while taking into consideration the period and regional characteristics of the collection. In this exhibition, the museum will open its newly renovated exhibition rooms and other facilities and equipment to the public, and will once again introduce 112 masterpieces carefully selected from the museum's collection to date, including works and materials by Fujii, as well as art works purchased and donated by many benefactors.
