Ōita Prefectural Art Museum has announced that its exhibition 'Love! Vanguard!!' will close on 16 August, putting the presentation into its final three weeks. The museum’s notice, posted on 25 July, frames the countdown as a last chance for visitors who have not yet seen the show to encounter its works before the run ends.

The museum highlighted several of the exhibition’s named highlights in its announcement, including works by Yayoi Kusama and a representative work by Stanley William Hayter. No additional exhibition details were provided in the source notice, but the museum’s language makes clear that the display brings together a number of works it describes as memorable or moving.

Ōita Prefectural Art Museum is based in Ōita-shi, Japan, and the museum shared the update through its social media account. The notice does not specify any changes to the exhibition schedule, only that the run is approaching its final stretch.

The exhibition title appears in Japanese as 'ラブ!ヴァンガード!!', rendered by the museum in English as 'Love! Vanguard!!'. The announcement itself is brief, focusing on the closing date and on selected artists rather than on curatorial themes, installation details, or the full checklist of works on view.

With the museum pointing to Kusama and Hayter among the show’s featured names, the post underlines the exhibition’s range without elaborating further on how the pieces are organized or displayed. Visitors still have until 16 August to view the exhibition before it ends at the museum.
