A special exhibition taking place at the Tottori Prefectural Museum will examine the works of Japanese artist Taro Okamoto (1911 - 1996), with a specific focus on his friendship with avant-garde artists cultivated in pre-war Paris and how this impacted art movements in post-war Japan.
As well as examining Okamoto's time in Paris and how his relationships forged there impacted the Japanese art world, the event will also celebrate the 110th anniversary of his birth.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 800 yen, and no advance bookings are required.
