NMWA 40th Anniversary Official Collaborative Exhibition Selects 5 Japanese Female Contemporary Artists. Exhibition Opens at Omotesando Hills.
Summary
The NMWA Japan Committee has selected five Japanese female contemporary artists for an official collaborative exhibition tied to the 40th anniversary of the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) in Washington D.C. The works will be publicly displayed at the 'AND COLLECTION' gallery in Omotesando Hills. This exhibition is part of the international program 'Women to Watch,' marking its 20th anniversary alongside NMWA's 40th. Recommended by Yukie Kamiya, Curator at The National Art Center, Tokyo, the five featured artists are Saya Irie, Sachiko Kazama, Aiko Miyunaga, Hanako Murakami, and Tomoko Yoneda. The theme is 'A Book Arts Revolution,' showcasing intricate and beautiful expressions of the concept of 'book' interpreted by female artists in the digital age. One artist will be chosen from this group in early April to represent Japan at the 8th 'Women to Watch' exhibition in the U.S. in 2027.
