MOMAT Collection
To introduce some features of the museum鈥檚 exhibitions of works from the collection: First, its scale is one of the largest in Japan, displaying approximately 200 works each term from the museum鈥檚 holdings of over 13,000 works acquired since its opening in 1952. Also, it is one of the foremost exhibitions in Japan, tracing the arc of Japanese modern and contemporary art from the end of the 19th century to the present day through a series of 13 rooms, each with its own specific theme.
Some highlights of the current term are as follows. In Room 5 on the fourth floor, we present 100 Years of Surrealism, showcasing one of the most significant movements in 20th-century art through a selection of works from both Japan and abroad. During the first term, Room 10 on the third floor presents Spring Festival, with a lineup of works depicting spring flowers. In the second term, the same room will feature works by Nihon-ga (Japanese-style) painters who transcend meticulous rendering to probe deeper meanings. And in Gallery 4 on the second floor, Feminism and the Moving Image explores the works of female artists who addressed issues surrounding gender-related imbalances.
