A special event at Tokyo's Museum of Contemporary Art will look at the works of Mark Manders (1968-), a Dutch artist known for his unique contemporary sculptures that manage to strike a balance between calmness and unease.
This solo exhibition will showcase a range of Manders' sculptures, including two of his representative works: Nocturnal Garden Scene and Mind Study. This will be the first time that these pieces have been exhibited in Japan - they're on loan from museum collections in Belgium and the Netherlands.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 1500 yen.
