Free Display of the New Acquisition of Yokohama Museum of Art
Yokohama Museum of Art is pleased to present a major new work by a contemporary artist Asai Yusuke, “To the Forest of All Living Things.” This free display runs for only three days in Gallery 5, and coincides with “Tokyo Gendai,” an international contemporary art fair now in its second year at PACIFICO Yokohama..
Commissioned by the City of Yokohama, “To the Forest of All Living Things” has recently been added to the collection of the Yokohama Museum of Art. The commission was funded by a donation to The Yokohama Cultural Fund made by The Yokohama Shinkin Bank in 2023 in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of its founding. We invite you to experience this unique work, the creation of which brought together many people and places, and involved the use of soil collected mainly in Yokohama and elsewhere in Japan.
*Note: All other galleries except Gallery 5 are closed during this free display.
