黑料不打烊

The Tokyo Photographic Art Museum is pleased to present the TOP Collection exhibition marking the 30th anniversary of the museum鈥檚 opening. Co-curated by four curators in an omnibus format, the exhibition offers a multifaceted selection from the museum鈥檚 collection, conveying the richness and variety of photography and the moving image. The exhibition鈥檚 title, transphysical, combines the word 鈥減hysical,鈥� relating to material and the body, with the prefix 鈥渢rans,鈥� which suggests movement or transformation from one form or state to another. It explores both the physicality of photographs as objects and the bodily expression of both subjects and artists. Marking the museum鈥檚 30th anniversary, this exhibition offers new perspectives on works from the collection and invites viewers to reflect on the complex, multilayered processes through which images come into being. In an era of accelerating digitization, these carefully selected works offer a striking counterpoint, prompting fresh reflection on the nature of photography and the moving image. In today鈥檚 world, where digital technologies are rapidly advancing and the boundaries between the real and the virtual are increasingly fluid, the way we engage with artworks as physical objects may be on the brink of change. We hope that your encounter with these works, experienced here and now through your own physical being, makes an impression that becomes a lasting memory.
