Yoshiaki Tono (1930-2005), an art critic closely associated with the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art, is known as the man who introduced Western art to Japan in the postwar period and encouraged domestic trends, calling them “Han Geijutsu (Anti-Art)". He had a major influence on the formation of the museum's collection, and this exhibition looks back on Tono's career as a critic through the works and materials in the museum's collection. Works by Hideko Fukushima, Natsuyuki Nakanishi, and Katsuhiro Yamaguchi will be on display.
