Welcome to the MOMAT Collection!
To introduce some features of the museum’s exhibitions of works from the collection: First, its scale is one of the largest in Japan, displaying approximately 200 works each term from the museum’s holdings of over 13,000 works acquired since its opening in 1952. Also, it is one of the foremost exhibitions in Japan, tracing the arc of Japanese modern and contemporary art from the end of the 19th century to the present day through a series of 12 rooms, each with its own specific theme.
Some highlights of the current term are as follows. “Takanashi Yutaka: Machi” in Room 9 and “Things As They Are” in Room 11 are exhibits related to the special exhibition Nakahira Takuma: Burn—Overflow, which opens on February 6, 2024. In Room 10, we invite you to immerse yourself in classic works by the dyeing artist Serizawa Keisuke from the collection of the National Crafts Museum. Meanwhile, the “Highlights” section in Room 1 presents an array of practices from our appreciation program, and “In the Artists’ Own Words” in Room 12 features a project utilizing our extensive archive of talks by artists.
We believe our curatorial team has successfully showcased the depth and breadth of the collection and the cumulative outcomes of the museum’s activities. Please enjoy your visit to the fullest!
