Have you ever, when looking at a work of art, felt, “What the?,” “Wow!” or “Yikes!” Those emotional responses, reactions to unsettling experiences we cannot put into words, can be critical stimuli for looking more closely at a work. This exhibition is the second of our Unsettling Japanese Art exhibitions. The first was in 2021. Through thrilling, perplexing works and display techniques, your eyes, mind, and emotions are freed, and your intense interest, your feeling that “I really want to look at that work!” aroused.
In this exhibition, we are focusing on six themes: “Jam Packed!,” “Folding Freely,” “Lub, Dub, Love,” “Flip, Flap, Turn,” “Prick, Stab, Pierce,” and “Pick up! Gather!” Using not yet widely known works from the Suntory Museum of Art collection, its aim is to inspire you to consciously enjoy the act of looking at a work and freely savoring the essence of Japanese art.
Lend an ear to the stirring of your heart, aroused by encountering a certain work of art, and you may make unexpected discoveries that will deepen your understanding of the fascination of Japanese art.
