Exhibition ‘Mucha’ Opened

On March 8, the exhibition ‘Alfons Mucha’ opened at the National Art Center, Tokyo (until June 5). The exhibition featured works by Alfons Mucha, a leading Art Nouveau artist. Among them, ‘The Slav Epic’, a series of 20 large-format canvases, created in his native Czech Republic, were exhibited for the first time outside the county. The exhibition highlighted Mucha’s patriotic side, which had rarely been introduced to the public. (Japanese)
