Bernard Buffet (1928 - 1999) was a French expressionist painter who had a specific focus on concrete art. The term concrete art refers to a style of painting which is characterized by geometric abstraction and sharp, black lines. A special event at Tokyo's Bunkamura Art Center looks into Buffet's works, and will have around 80 pieces on display.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 1600 yen.
