The Fukuoka Art Museum has opened ‘Autumn Masterpieces Exhibition’, a presentation of selected works from the Matsunaga Collection. The exhibition began on August 11, 2026, and is scheduled to remain on view through October 19 in the museum’s Ancient Art Room on the first floor.
The museum describes the selection as a group of masterpieces suited to the mood and imagery of autumn. Its announcement does not provide a full checklist or identify the number of works included, but it singles out Ogata Kenzan’s ‘Flower Basket Design’ as one of the featured pieces.
‘Flower Basket Design’ is designated an Important Cultural Property in Japan. According to the museum, the work will be displayed only through September 13, earlier than the closing date of the wider exhibition. The museum has not supplied further information about the reason for that shorter display period.
The exhibition draws on the Matsunaga Collection, a collection presented by the museum in the context of its ancient-art holdings. The announcement specifically places the exhibition in the Ancient Art Room rather than describing it as a presentation across the museum’s wider galleries.
‘Autumn Masterpieces Exhibition’ is scheduled at the Fukuoka Art Museum in Fukuoka, Japan, from August 11 through October 19, 2026. Ogata Kenzan’s ‘Flower Basket Design’ is scheduled to remain on view until September 13.
