Urban Art, presented in cities worldwide from the 20th to the 21st century, has emerged from urban spaces and has been created by artists who transcend barriers such as language, culture, religion, and origin. Their works break free from rules and constraints, prompting us to contemplate various issues, including social injustices, capitalism, and racial discrimination.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We are excited to announce the details of the Kyoto exhibition, which is part of a larger tour starting in Kyushu (Oita) in the summer of 2023 and visiting Kyoto and Tokyo as well. The exhibition will spotlight 10 internationally acclaimed artists, including Banksy, Kaws, and Barry McGee, and will feature a selection of works, including some that will be shown for the first time in Japan.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Featuring artworks from the world-renowned MUCA Collection, this exhibition is the culmination of over 25 years of collecting and institutional support for the bold and innovative works of pioneering artists in Urban Art\u2014aptly called &#8220;Icons.\u201c<br \/>\nWe invite you to experience these groundbreaking and creative pieces at the MUCA Exhibition in Kyoto.
