Yokohama Museum of Art Reopening Inaugural Exhibition
Welcome back, Yokohama
Overview
This exhibition will shine a light on the true diversity of Yokohama, from the people who lived here before its famous port opened in 1859, to its current citizens, hailing from some 170 nations. The show will make full use of the museum’s collection and also feature newly commissioned works.
The exhibition title is an acknowledgement that the Yokohama Museum of Art is back after three years of renovations and a message of acceptance to everyone who has been or is now connected with Yokohama, regardless of the era in which they lived or the region in which they were born.
