About
Discover an exploration of time and history from the perspective of Hiroshi Sugimoto, one of the most internationally acclaimed contemporary artists.
Conceived and curated by Sugimoto himself, History of History is a personal exhibition that melds his own evocative photographs with prehistoric fossil specimens and an enormous range of traditional Japanese artworks – all from his private collection. Mr. Sugimoto will augment the exhibition with new works customized for this installation, including a response to the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal designed by Daniel Libeskind.
