ART-TO-ART TALK: NATIONAL MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, TOKYO LAUNCHES ‘LET'S TALK ART! ONLINE’

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 8 -- The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo (MOMAT) in Japan has launched ‘Let's Talk Art! Online’, an online conversational programme in English, on Feb 2, 2022.

According to a statement, applications are accepted through Viator.

Unlike guided tours where people only listen to explanations of art pieces, ‘Let's Talk Art!’ is an experiential programme in which participants interact with each other under the guidance of a facilitator, deepening their understanding of art works and Japanese culture.

MOMAT has been conducting this programme for museum visitors, but now that it is difficult to travel to Japan, the museum has launched a new online version of the programme so that people can join from anywhere in the world.

MOMAT has a large collection focusing on Japanese art from the beginning of the 20th century to present day. In this programme, participants spend 60 minutes to appreciate three works from the museum's collection carefully selected based on a single theme (the entire programme takes 80 minutes).

The programme is recommended not only for art lovers, but also for those who want to deepen their understanding of Japanese culture and those who are interested in cross-cultural exchange.
