In celebration of 150 years of diplomatic co-operation between Denmark and Japan, the Designmuseum Danmark in Copenhagen is hosting the exhibition “Learning from Japan” that remains on view through June 30, 2018.The exhibition is curated by  Dr.phil. Mirjam Gelfer-Jørgensen, the author of the book “Influences from Japan in Danish Art and Design 1870-2010”, on which the exhibit is based. It includes more than 400 works, including some seldom seen or never seen by the public. Some of these works are part of the museum’s large book and picture collection. The exhibit is wide-ranging and touches on themes like nature motifs in Japanese art, processes and materials, architecture and interior design, fashion and lighting, furniture and tableware, all inspired by the meeting with Japanese art and handicrafts, but now integrated into Danish design. Visitors can experience the museum’s collection of beautiful Japanese woodcuts from the 18th century, unique graphic works from the book and picture collection as well as ceramics created using special Japanese techniques.The exhibition is at Designmuseum Danmark, Bredgade 68, 1260 Copenhagen K, Denmark.
