Program

A Special Osaka Contemporary Art Exhibition Connecting Senses and the City

We invite you to the first retrospective exhibition commemorating the 10th anniversary of the passing of Nakanishi Natsuyuki, a painter who left a monumental mark on contemporary Japanese art history. His artistic journey, beginning in the late 1950s, transcended the mere act of painting on canvas, constantly questioning the fundamental place and essence of where painting should exist.

Explore his unique artistic world that blurs the lines between figurative and abstract, blooming on the canvas. This exhibition poses the profound question of what painting is to us today, bringing together the brilliant records where his soft gaze lingered. We encourage you to experience firsthand the aesthetics of 'endless dwelling' that Nakanishi Natsuyuki dedicated his life to exploring in the tranquil underground museum.

 

An Emotional Contemporary Art Exhibition Where City and Art Intersect

The First Retrospective Tracing Nakanishi Natsuyuki's Artistic Trajectory

This exhibition provides a comprehensive overview of his extensive body of work, from his early pieces in the late 1950s to his final works. Through his unique painting philosophy, which defies easy categorization into specific genres, you will have a precious opportunity to fully appreciate the depth and philosophy of contemporary Japanese art.

Art as 'Devices' Questioning the Essence of Painting

Nakanishi Natsuyuki constantly pondered how paintings emerge on the canvas and their spatial context. His works offer viewers not just visual pleasure but a new perspective on how art interacts with the spaces of our lives.

Two Exhibitions with One Ticket

Along with the special exhibition 'Nakanishi Natsuyuki: Devices for a Soft Gaze and Endless Dwelling', you can also visit the museum's permanent collection exhibition, 'Collection 3'. Enrich your day in Osaka with art by enjoying both the master's retrospective and highlights of modern and contemporary art.


"Experience the quiet resonance of a master who transcended abstraction and figuration. Embark on a journey to the special place Nakanishi Natsuyuki built on canvas throughout his life."
