🕷 "Maman" floating in the Roppongi sky - Touching the heart with Louise Bourgeois exhibition, visit to Mori Art Museum, Tokyo

🕷 "Maman" Floating in the Roppongi Sky—Touching the Soul with the Louise Bourgeois Exhibition: A Visit to Mori Art Museum, Tokyo ⸻ I went to the Louise Bourgeois exhibition at the Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills, Tokyo. Welcoming me at the entrance is a gigantic spider, "Maman," approximately 10 meters tall. With its steel legs, delicate body, and dangling eggs, its appearance is said to embody the artist's love as a "protector" for her late mother, as well as her complex feelings toward motherhood. The museum is lined with works that quietly stir the viewer's inner self, including "Couple," featuring intertwined bodies, and "Arch of Hysteria," symbolizing an emotional outburst. Each piece combines strength and delicacy, seemingly embodying family, memory, sexuality, and deepest emotional wounds. 🕒 Opening hours: 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM (until 5:00 PM on Tuesdays) 📍 The Mori Art Museum is located on the 53rd floor of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, directly connected to Roppongi Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, making it easily accessible. Even if you're not an expert on contemporary art, Bourgeois's works are like "sculptures of emotion," resonating with each viewer's memories and emotions. I highly recommend this museum for anyone wanting to experience art in Tokyo. ⸻ #LouiseBourgeoisExhibition #MoriArtMuseum #Maman #RoppongiSightseeing #TokyoTrip #ContemporaryArt #ArtTrip #RecommendedTripSpots #TokyoArt #LouiseBourgeois
