From September 14, 2024, the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art will be hosting an exhibition by German-based artist Nishikawa Katsuhito entitled "Nishikawa Katsuhito: Echoes of Silence."
Nishikawa is a Japanese artist who participated in the establishment of the Insel Hombroich Museum on the outskirts of Düsseldorf and currently has a studio within the museum.
When we think of the place that mitosaya is aiming for, the first thing that comes to mind is the experience of the Insel Hombroich Museum, where nature and art are integrated, with architecture, art pieces, outdoor sculptures, artist studios, and residency facilities scattered across its vast grounds.
Another inspiration was the dynamic exhibition experience at the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art, which combines the rich natural surroundings with the building and spaces created for the artworks. I was particularly impressed by the Morris Louis exhibition.
This time, we were honored to be asked to develop products to coincide with Nishikawa's exhibition at the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art. Mitosaya and CAN-PANY have created special drinks and candies inspired by Nishikawa's works and the natural tranquility and serenity felt in the forests of Germany.
These products will be available to enjoy at the exhibition venue.
In addition, a crosstalk will be held on November 23rd, featuring Eguchi from mitosaya.
This will be a rare opportunity to experience the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art, which will sadly close after this exhibition, so please come and visit.

He is a Japanese artist who participated in the establishment of the Insel Hombroich Museum in the suburbs of Dusseldorf, and still maintains a studio in the museum.
When thinking about mitosaya aims to go, the first thing that comes to mind is the experience at the Insel Hombroich Museum, where nature and art come together in a vast site dotted with architecture, artworks, outdoor sculptures, artists' studios, and residency facilities.
Another inspiration is the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art, a dynamic exhibition experience that combines the richness of nature with buildings and spaces created for artworks. I was particularly impressed by the Morrice Louis exhibition.
We were honored to be asked to develop products to accompany Nishikawa's exhibition at the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art, and mitosaya and CAN-PANY created special beverages and Kandis inspired by his work and the serenity and calm of nature felt in the German forest.
These products will be available at the exhibition.
There will also be a crosstalk event on November 23 with Eguchi of mitosaya.
This will be a rare opportunity to experience the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art, which will regrettably be closed with this exhibition, so please come and visit.
