Tokyo National Museum
At the Tokyo National Museum Heiseikan, Collaborative Exhibition Project between the Tokyo National Museum and the Philadelphia Museum of Art: Marcel Duchamp and Japanese Art will be held from October 2 (Tuesday) to December 9 (Sun) in 2018.
Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968) was an artist who rocked the values of traditional Western art greatly and made a shocking influence on the art of the 20th century.
This exhibition consists of two parts, Part One is The Essential Duchamp, organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which will introduce the creative activities of a figure now widely seen as the father of contemporary art by showcasing Philadelphia’s definitive collection of his works.
The other is Rediscovering Japan through Duchamp, and consists of Japanese art in the collection of the Tokyo National Museum.
