The Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo has announced three current exhibitions on view in its Kiba Park building: 'Eric Carle Exhibition: Starting with 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar',' '(UN)KNOWN HIROKO KOSHINO: New and True Theories of Koshino Hiroko,' and 'MOT Collection: First Time, Art.' According to the museum’s exhibitions page, the shows are part of the institution’s current lineup in Tokyo.
The museum said the exhibitions are open from 10:00 to 18:00, with last entry at 17:30. The listing also distinguishes between the run dates for the different presentations: one set of exhibitions is open until July 26, while another continues until August 16. The museum’s website presents these as ongoing exhibitions rather than as separate new announcements.
The Tokyo museum, located in Kiba Park, operates as a major contemporary art institution with a broad program of exhibitions, collections and educational activities. Its current exhibitions page groups the three projects together under the heading for exhibitions currently underway and those coming up, while noting that no further exhibitions are scheduled at present.
Among the listed projects is 'Eric Carle Exhibition: Starting with 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar',' which signals a presentation centered on the American author-illustrator best known for children's picture books. The title indicates that 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' serves as the point of departure for the exhibition.
Also on view is '(UN)KNOWN HIROKO KOSHINO: New and True Theories of Koshino Hiroko,' a show that foregrounds designer and artist Hiroko Koshino through the museum’s framing of her work as both familiar and newly considered. The third listing, 'MOT Collection: First Time, Art,' suggests a collection-based presentation drawn from the museum’s own holdings.
The museum’s exhibitions page gives the venue as the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo in Tokyo, Japan, and notes the institution’s address as 4-1-1 Miyoshi, Koto-ku, within Kiba Park. Visitors are directed to the museum’s site for further details on the current exhibition program.
