Yokohama Museum of Art will open ‘Yuko Mori Recompose — The 60th Venice Biennale Japan Pavilion Return Exhibition’ on July 24, according to the museum’s announcement. The show is presented as a return exhibition for Mori’s project shown at the Japan Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale, bringing that work back to Yokohama in museum form.
The museum’s notice frames the exhibition as a dedicated presentation of Yuko Mori’s ‘Recompose’, with the Japanese title identifying it as the homecoming of the Venice Biennale Japan Pavilion project. No further curatorial details were included in the source material, but the announcement confirms the exhibition’s opening date and links it directly to Mori’s Venice presentation.
The project’s title, ‘Recompose’, suggests a work centered on arrangement, reassembly or transformation, though the museum announcement does not elaborate on the content or format of the exhibition. What is confirmed is that the show is tied to the 60th Venice Biennale and to the Japan Pavilion, giving Yokohama visitors a chance to encounter the work after its international presentation.
Yokohama Museum of Art, one of the city’s major art institutions, used its social media channel to announce the opening with a short Japanese-language post and an accompanying image. The museum’s wording emphasizes that the exhibition begins the day after the notice, underscoring the immediacy of the opening.
According to the museum, ‘Yuko Mori Recompose — The 60th Venice Biennale Japan Pavilion Return Exhibition’ opens on July 24, 2024, at Yokohama Museum of Art in Yokohama, Japan.
