Group Show
Arts Maebashi will host two exhibitions featuring works from its collection. On the ground floor, we will showcase works acquired between 2022 and 2024, including paintings, calligraphy, and prints. On the basement floor, we will present a selection of works by female artists from our collection (paintings, sculptures, photographs, and videos), including some newly acquired pieces. This exhibition will introduce female artists who are currently making remarkable strides in their careers, as well as highlight the museum's proactive efforts to acquire their works.
Furthermore, this exhibition will invite two female artists who are currently attracting attention, Yumie Shirai and Seiran Tsuno, to expand their world.

3.
As the title “Collection + (Plus)” suggests, in addition to the works in the collection, two artists will participate. Yumie Shiraishi will exhibit embroidered works. These pieces are not bound by designs, but rather created with the free movement of the fingers, featuring an overwhelming density of thread and beads. Seiran Tsuno, who gained attention for works created with a 3D pen, will present “custom-made” clothing created for her grandmother, who is bedridden.
