The exhibition, titled "Sekai no Kotowari—Art of Our Time," introduces works by 20 domestic artists focusing on artistic expressions from the 1990s to the present, a period marked by increasing globalization and opportunities for Japanese artists abroad. The exhibition seeks to interpret artists' considerations and practices regarding the relationship between the world and humanity using keywords such as "identity," "body," "history," and "globalized society," aiming for the viewing experience to resemble a "sea chart" recording encounters and currents. The title "Sekai no Kotowari" implies an attitude of suspending easy interpretation of the unknown while updating one's own thinking, similar to how foreign words are rendered in Katakana. The exhibition hopes to provide visitors an opportunity to find their own understanding of "Sekai no Kotowari" in response to the question, "Where Do We Stand?". The exhibition runs from December 20, 2025, to March 8, 2026.
