The Peabody Essex Museum has tons of exciting exhibits that change regularly, and this one that began in March looks awesome. Are you a fan of all things Japan? If so, this is for you! 😛
Per the Peabody Essex Museum website:
“Discover the beauty and complex stories behind PEM’s celebrated Japanese export art collection. The new installation takes visitors on a journey through time — from the arrival of Portuguese merchants in the 1500s through Japan’s emergence on the world stage in the late 19th century and beyond. Throughout, the story is punctuated with stunning works of art, including extraordinary loans from a private collection and many objects on view for the first time since PEM’s 2016 exhibition Asia in Amsterdam.
Japanomania! Japanese Art Goes Global is made possible by the generous support of an anonymous donor, the late Mrs. Lammot du Pont Copeland and The Lee and Juliet Folger Fund.”
This exhibit runs from March 31, 2018 to December 30, 2018. The Peabody Essex Museum is located at 161 Essex St. Salem, MA 01970. Enjoy!! <3
