玉器とガラス器−中国古代とヨーロッパ近代を中心に−
2019年9月1日（日）〜10月20日（日）
光を通すという共通の特徴を備える玉とガラスをテーマとして、中国とヨーロッパの玉器やガラス器を所蔵品から紹介します。玉は鉱物の一種で中国では新石器時代より貴重視され、現代に至るまで各種の工芸品が作られてきました。古代においては質感が似ていることから玉器に倣ったガラス器が作られたり、近世には複数の色ガラスを用いた鮮やかな彩りの器が作られています。また、地中海地域の古代の色ガラスをはじめ、１９世紀後半から２０世紀初め頃のボヘミアガラスなどヨーロッパのガラス器も展示し、中国の作品とともに玉やガラスの素材の美しさや精緻な細工を鑑賞していただく展覧会です。
絵画でランデヴー−東西美術の出逢い−
2019年11月2日（土）〜12月22日（日）
「画家は旅をする。感性は巡り逢う。」
画家は、時に多くの旅をしてきました。旅や移動は環境や交友関係の変化をもたらし、それはしばしば画家本人とその作品にも強い影響を与えます。
本展覧会では「旅」や「出逢い」をテーマとし、葛飾北斎、伊藤若冲、モネ、ルノワールなど、日本人にも親しみのある日本とヨーロッパの作家による人物と風景画を中心にご紹介します。東西で異なる絵画表現や作家の様々な個性を感じ、絵画の魅力をお楽しみください。
なお、本展覧会では東京富士美術館に出品協力をいただき、和泉市久保惣記念美術館の所蔵品とともにご紹介します。東京と大阪、ふたつの都市が絵画で結ばれる展覧会です。

The ones from Europe are lithographs, with colors added by hand, in Fauna Japonica and Flora Japonica published by Siebold, a German doctor and biologist who lived in Japan. A wild plant picture book from England and an Asian bird picture book from Asia, both of which were published around the same period, are also on display.

Jade Ware and Glassware―Focusing on Ancient China and Modern Europe―
September 1 (Sun.), 2019 – October 20 (Sun.)
Under the theme of jade and glass, both of which allow light to pass through, this exhibition introduces jade ware and glassware of China and Europe from our collection. Jade is a type of mineral, which has been highly valued since the Neolithic age in China, and a material from which a great number of artifacts have been created to date. With regard to glasswork in China, some were fashioned as copies of jade work from ancient time, while colorful works using different colored glass were created during the early modern period. In addition to those from China, this exhibition includes items from Europe, such as ancient colored glass from the Mediterranean region and Bohemian glass from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. This exhibition offers a great opportunity to appreciate the beauty of jade and glass and the elaborate handiwork involved in the ware on display.
