A special exhibition taking place at the National Art Center in Tokyo will explore the works of Henri Matisse (1869 - 1954), who is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th Century. The event will specifically focus on pieces on loan from the Matisse Museum in Nice, France, including paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, textiles, and works that showcase his paper-cutting technique.
Whether you're already a Matisse fan or you simply appreciate art in all its varied forms, the exhibition is a wonderful chance to explore his revolutionary use of color, form, and innovative artistic techniques that continue to inspire creatives to this day.
Adult admission to the exhibition is priced at 2200 JPY, and no advance reservations are required.
