From Museum Collection: Is Painting Still?

About the Exhibition

"Things" given form to by having lines drawn on a "flat plane," being colored, and being attached to the wall?Unlike animation and movies, don’t you regard "pictures" and "photographs" as still things that do not move? The correspondence between one color and another, the three-dimensionality of the depicted forms, and impressive portrayal of nature create space within the picture and it begins to move vividly within the viewer’s eyes. Stand in front of a picture that is so large that you feel you might be sucked into it, look at it from a distance, or examine the details. You might be able to find a secret relationship between that picture and this one. The gallery this summer await you with works brimming with tranquil energy that can be enjoyed by everyone from grown-ups to children.
