The 'Tameshite, Miru Exhibition' at Shiga Prefectural Museum of Art in Otsu is an event where visitors can experience art using all five senses, such as touching artworks, lying down to view them, or watching them in total darkness. Curators emphasize that they want to encourage people who are not typically interested in art to visit and enjoy the exhibition by utilizing their bodies and tools. The museum regularly hosts ambitious exhibitions that propose new ways to enjoy its collection, and this event follows last year's 'Rakugo de aa! to Exhibition'. The display features 53 works, including 'Voian' by artist Imai, which allows visitors to be photographed as part of the artwork, and a piece where pressing a switch lights up a spotlight to enjoy color changes. The exhibition also includes 'Clifford Still' works, the only collection of this American abstract painter in a domestic museum.
