Undressing Paintings: Japanese Nudes 1880-1945
ぬぐ絵画──日本のヌード 1880-1945

This exhibition features female nude paintings by modern Japanese artists. The exhibition room is divided in such a way that the existing column is in the center and viewers cannot see all works at once. On the other hand, commentaries on chapters are placed on this column so that viewers can see appreciate the sequence of all works without interruption. Captions are printed on pink round labels in contrast to the gloomy impression of this period, allowing viewers to appreciate the works from a contemporary perspective. The boundary walls were redesigned for this exhibition and benches with legs inclined in two directions were also made.

日本近代の裸婦像をテーマにした展覧会。部屋の中央に既存柱がくるように部屋割りをすることで、作品が一望できないように構成し、一方、絵画の連なりが連続的に鑑賞できるように章解説はこの柱に配置した。キャプションは、この時代特有の陰鬱な印象に反してピンクの丸型とし、現代の視点で作品を鑑賞できるようにした。この展覧会に合わせて結界のデザインを刷新し、また、二方向に傾斜を持つ脚のベンチも制作した。
