In Tokyo through June 12, this is the only place in the world where Hokusai works from Japan and the United Kingdom are displayed in collaboration.
The Suntory Museum has put together an extraordinary exhibition worth everyone’s visit showcasing the reproduction of Shosoin treasures and celebrating the Emperor.
The exhibition makes the history of this important figure easy to understand and includes several works that are rarely made available for public viewing.
Here is an exhibition that encourages viewers to engage with artwork in a playful spirit and introspect about the “unsettling feeling” that art can evoke.
