Roppongi Crossing 2025: What Passes Is Time. We Are Eternal.
The Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, is pleased to present the exhibition Roppongi Crossing 2025: What Passes Is Time. We Are Eternal. from Wednesday, December 3, 2025 to Sunday, March 29, 2026.
Roppongi Crossing is a series of co-curated exhibitions staged every three years at the Mori Art Museum. The series was first launched in 2004 to provide a snapshot of Japan's contemporary art scene at a particular moment in time. For this eighth edition, curators from the Mori Art Museum will be joined by two internationally active Asian guest curators to present total of twenty-one artists/artist groups under the theme of 'time' – including those active in Japan regardless of nationality, as well as those based overseas with Japanese roots.
The exhibited works encompass not only painting, sculpture, and video, but also crafts, handicrafts, zines, and even community projects. immersive installations that transcend the domains of architecture and design, have won international acclaim. Kuwata Takuro's colorful, large-scale ceramic works that exude an overwhelming beauty of form have also garnered much attention through his collaborations with overseas maisons. Hosoi Miyu, who has been creating works using her own voice and environmental sounds while also making theater works, will present a new sound piece. Oki Junko's embroidery works resembling abstract paintings created through delicate handiwork have received recognition both domestically and internationally in recent years. These diverse and varied expressions come together in one space.
The exhibition's subtitle What Passes Is Time. We Are Eternal. indicates the preciousness and transience of time. Through the convergence of the unique, temporal experiences each work offers, this exhibition seeks to reexamine Japanese art from multiple perspectives.
