Notes

  • Catalogue of the exhibition Women and Abstraction held at The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo on 20 Sep - 3 Dec 2023. Text in Japanese. This exhibition, divided into three sections, draws on the museum’s collection to present diverse forms of abstraction from the immediate postwar period to the present day. Section 1, “Women Artists Association,” focuses on abstract works by members of an art association formed by women shortly after the war in a show of solidarity. Section 2, “Proliferating Circles,” highlights artworks that create spaces by multiplying the motif of the circle. Section 3, “Suppression and Liberation,” brings together works by artists who arrived at an abstract mode of expression through bold simplification and purification of elements.
