Selections from the Ishibashi Foundation Collection Special Section Women Impressionists

At the Artizon Museum, the fourth-floor gallery presents Selections from the Collection, in which selected works from the more than 2,800 works in the Ishibashi Foundation Collection are displayed. The Special Section area there will present a special exhibition, each planned with a different theme, that will shed new light on works in the collection.In 2020, those special section exhibits will be held over two periods. The first, to be held from Tuesday, June 23, to Sunday, October 25, will simultaneously present “Women Impressionists” and “New Acquisitions: The Paul Klee Collection.”
The Artizon Museum has made the Impressionists one core of its collection since our predecessor, the Bridgestone Museum of Art, opened its doors in 1952. As part of the preparations for our reopening, it was decided to enrich our Impressionist collection, and we were then able to acquire five works by four major women Impressionists: Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Marie Bracquemond, and Eva Gonzalèz. These works will be shown together with eight related works already in our collection and six images from a newly acquired collection of vintage portrait photographs of Western 19th century artists.
