ABOUT THE EXHIBITION Japanese
A multi-dimensional installation exploring shifting perspectives of art, time and space

The Mori Art Museum presents an exhibition of new work by Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, New York based Russian artists whose unique narrative paintings and installations have positioned them at the forefront of international contemporary art. In “Where Is Our Place? " the Kabakovs construct three views of art and the world, in gigantic, actual and miniature sizes to evoke the art of the past, present and future. This exhibition, which the Kabakovs call "every kind of relativity," explores the relativity of values and the inevitability of history, in which the old is invariably transcended by the new. Drifting between periods and scales the visitor is made to think about where his or her own place is within history, society and culture. "Where is Our Place?" is organized by the Mori Art Museum in collaboration with Fondazione Querini Stampalia, Venice and The Museo Nazionale delle Arti del XXI Secolo. It was first held in Venice last year, and will travel to Rome after visiting the Mori Art Museum.
