Art exhibitions in Japan

Overview

Art exhibitions in Japan have focused on diverse themes ranging from diaspora experiences to modern masterworks. In late August 2026, exhibitions in the Kanto and Kansai regions highlighted the Korean diaspora through the MAM Research 012 project, alongside solo works by French artist Daniel Buren and Shu Yonezawa.

By September, major museums announced a series of significant exhibitions for the remainder of the year. These include commemorations of Kojiro Matsukata and Tokutaro Yamamura at the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art, a collaboration between Picasso and Paul Smith at The National Art Center, Tokyo, and various showcases at the Kanazawa 21st Century Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, and the Towada Art Center.
