Collection 2: Undo, Redo

Click to Zoom

The 2024 Collection 2 exhibition focuses on the way artists undo and redo existing materials, structures, and history along with the state of their works. As a starting point, we look at pieces by Louise Bourgeois and Leonor Antunes that were acquired by the museum in 2023, and a work by Ruth Asawa that was acquired in 2024 and is being shown here for the first time in Japan. The exhibition also includes many other recent acquisitions.

The exhibition title was inspired by I Do, I Undo, I Redo, a work by Bourgeois that was shown in Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall in 2000, and the creative activities of artists such as Aiko Tezuka, two of whom’s works were added to the museum collection in 2023.
