<<Free-to-talk Time>> EXHIBITION "Wow, Hokusai! See, Examine, and Discover Ukiyo-e" Related Event

Sat, July 19, 2025 - Thu, August 28, 2025
When appreciating artworks, it is important to view them carefully in a quiet environment, but it is also very important to view the artworks and discuss them and share your impressions. This exhibition has set aside "Free-to-talk Time". During this time, we lower the barriers that "you must not talk in the exhibition room" and "you must view the artworks in silence," allowing you to enjoy the exhibition while chatting casually. This is also recommended for first-time visitors to an art museum. Have a good time with your family and friends in the museum!

In this event, we’ll demonstrate how to print Hokusai’s ‘The Great Wave’.
‘The Great Wave’ is a multicolor woodblock print. Hokusai made the sketch and a skilled carver created the blocks used to print them. A printer then created multiple woodblock prints.
