Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum
We have released an online gallery talk of the special exhibition “Walls & Bridges, Touching the World, Living the World” (until Saturday, October 9, 2021), which we would like you to see because of the corona.
The exhibition “Walls & Bridges: Touching the World, Living the World” (until Saturday, October 9), which is being held at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, offers a perspective on the “barriers” that surround oneself with an insatiable passion for expression. Five creators who could transform into a “bridge” that enables This is an exhibition that introduces (paintings) and Jonas Mechas (photos / videos).
From the viewers, “I felt the power,” “I was nailed to my eyes,” “I was happy,” “I was encouraged,” “Healed,” “I was deeply struck,” and “My heart was purified.” We have received many impressions, such as “I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for having such a rich time.”
I would like you to take a look at this exhibition because it is a corona virus, but now that people are calling for refraining from moving across prefectural borders, many people have said that they cannot go to Tokyo even if they want to. So, since has released a gallery talk by online by the responsible curator, please take a look.
