Collection Gallery
The Collection Gallery exhibits selected works of nihonga (Japanese-style painting), yōga (Western-style painting), prints, sculpture, crafts (ceramics, textiles, metalworks, wood and bamboo works, lacquers and jewelry) and photography from the museum collection, rotating the works on display approximately twenty times a year. Also shown are outstanding and monumental works of modern art in Japan, as well as modern and contemporary European and American art.NOTE: Japanese names are generally represented in the traditional fashion, with the family name first, followed by the given name or the “artist name.” (Exceptions are made for artists who are/were long-term residents of foreign countries, e.g., Tsuguharu Léonard Foujita, and for contemporary artists in accordance with the artist’s [perceived] preference.)
