Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo kicks off 3 exhibitions tomorrow

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 15 -- The Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (MOT) will hold three exhibitions and an MOT collection exhibition simultaneously, beginning Nov 16.

Firstly, a solo exhibition ‘Dumb Type - Actions + Reflections’, by Japan’s leading media artist group, Dumb Type which was formed in 1984 by multimedia performance artists consisting mainly of Kyoto City University of Arts students.

The second is the ‘mina perhonen/minagawa akira TSUZUKU’ exhibition which introduces the 25-year history of the fashion and textile brand ‘mina perhonen’ established by Japanese designer Akira Minagawa.

The third is ‘MOT Annual’, a group exhibition that seeks to invite inquiries and discussions by focusing on one aspect of contemporary art.

‘MOT Annual 2019 Echo after Echo: Summoned Voices, New Shadows’ addresses the fundamental question of ‘Why do people make things?’ together with artists expressing themselves in tune with existing domains like image, language, history, material and so on.

Along with the three exhibitions, the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo displays ‘MOT Collection Part 3: Present Day and in Times Past - Multiple Perspectives’, its superb collection to commemorate its re-opening after renovation.

The exhibition will end on Feb 16, 2020. More details at https://www.mot-art-museum.jp/en/
