Today, the works of art neatly displayed in a museum’s gallery are public objects that anyone may enjoy seeing. Looking back to when those works were created, however, we realize that they were made as furnishings for a residence or painted to decorate a private room: they came about through a relationship with the person who owned them. Moreover, they passed into other persons’ hands or were inherited by later generations. This exhibition presents a variety of works from the Ishibashi Foundation Museum from many times and places- ancient and modern, East and West- to explore the situations under which works of art were created and how they were treated and passed on. Visitors will have the opportunity to imagine and experience those many contexts.
