Description
Exhibition design took inspiration from geometric shapes in Ikko Tanaka's poster Nihon Buyo; an oversized title-wall triptych unfurls like a folding fan at the entrance, and section backdrops shift in color and scale to guide visitors chronologically through the collection. Curated by Nozomi Naoi and Erin Schoneveld; fabrication credited to Poster House's in-house team (Rob Leonardi) rather than an outside fabrication firm.
