From the 1st of November 2019 to the 2nd of February 2020 the public will get to experience "The Window: A Journey of Art and Architecture Through Windows" at the MOMAT (The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo).
Windows are familiar to everyone, through letting light and wind in the room they also protect us from coldness and heat. Through them we can have a fresh view of the outside world while indoors. This exhibition, organized jointly with the Window Research Institute that advocate “windowology,” focuses on windows from various viewpoints. In addition to Henri Matisse’s paintings and cutting-edge contemporary art, the contents will include non-art topics such as the global history of windows. The galleries will showcase cross-genre exhibits including scenes by window loved and painted by artists, and useful tips about windows.
