The Kamakura Annex of the Museum of Modern Art, Kamakura & Hayama is displaying a handwritten manuscript by artist Fukumi Shimura in a lobby presentation connected with the work ‘志村ふくみの言葉 百葉筥’. The museum announced the display in a post dated 16 August 2026.
Located outside the second-floor exhibition room, the lobby display introduces books and other published materials cited in ‘志村ふくみの言葉 百葉筥’. Among them is Shimura’s handwritten original manuscript for ‘布に思うこと’, a text published in issue 11 of the museum’s public-relations magazine ‘たいせつな風景’.
The announcement describes the manuscript as one of the materials being presented alongside the work. It does not provide additional information about the manuscript’s date, length or contents, and the museum’s notice does not identify a closing date for the display.
The presentation is a small visitor-information display rather than a separately announced exhibition. The source material also does not specify whether the manuscript will be shown for a limited period or whether other original materials are included beyond the books and related publications mentioned in the notice.
The museum invited visitors to view the material in the second-floor lobby of its Kamakura Annex. The announcement provides no separate event dates or programme details.
