Meet the Collection
Venue:

Yokohama Museum of ArtDates:

April 13 (Sat.), - June 23 (Sun.), 20192019 marks the 30th anniversary of the YokohamaMuseum of Art. Meet the Collection, designed to commemorate thisimportant milestone, is made up of two parts: “Life” and “World.”
Divided into a total of seven sections, the exhibition consists of over 400
works, including paintings, sculptures, prints, photographs, videos, andcrafts, drawn from the museum’s collection of over 12,000 items. Inaddition, four artists [Tabaimo, ASAI Yusuke, IMAZU Kei, SUGA Kishio]
have been invited to create some unique encounters between their own
works and those from the museum collection as a means of conveying
the free and diverse ways of viewing and interacting with art.
Moreover, the Heisei era will come to a close during theexhibition period. The history of the museum, which opened in 1989,
the first year of Heisei, corresponds exactly with the era. Whilefocusing primarily on collecting works, the facility has staged

countless encounters based on art. The museum resembles amagnetic field, creating links and cultivating rich relationships between highly individualistic works,
the artists who made them, and the viewers who come to see them. In this watershed year in theYokohama Museum of Art’s history, we hope you will join us in reconsidering the role and potentialof the museum as a place to meet the collection.
