[Renewal Opening Commemorative Exhibition] Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo Collection Exhibition "MOT Collection Part 2: Welcome Back / Nice to Meet You"

Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo

We visited “MOT Collection Part 2: Welcome Back / Nice to Meet You,” the collection exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, which reopened at the end of March 2019 after renewal.

The Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo currently holds approximately 5,400 works in its collection.
The collection spans a wide range of genres from modern to contemporary art, centering on postwar art, and the “MOT Collection” exhibitions showcase these holdings. The museum offers new perspectives on the same works by presenting them from various angles at each exhibition period, disseminating the diverse appeal of contemporary art.
This exhibition builds on “MOT Collection: Welcome Back / Nice to Meet You,” which introduced works mainly created in the 2010s from approximately 400 pieces acquired during the closure period, with a partial rearrangement and the addition of three new artists. The title conveys the reunion with “welcomed back” restored works and the fresh encounter with “nice to meet you” new arrivals.
