As Japan begins a new era, we present the first \u201cSomething Precious\u201d exhibition of the Reiwa Age: \u201cAh\/Uhn\u201d.
\nThe syllables Ah and Uhn have a broad range of meaning, representing the interval between inhalation and exhalation, opposing forces, and all things contained in the universe. In this way, they also symbolize beginning and end, making them the perfect motif to express the dawning of a new generation of Japanese history.
\nIn artistic terms, Ah and Uhn have traditionally been associated with twin open-mouthed and closed-mouth forms.
\nGiven such far-reaching thematic material, we are excited to see what images it conjures up in the minds of contemporary artists. Over 50 such artists have taken the challenge and will present their work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
