For the past several decades, Colombian artist Fernando Botero has humoured the world with his exaggerated depictions of people, animals and objects. This restrospective at Bunkamura – the first of its kind to be held in Tokyo in 26 years – is a particularly special event as it celebrates the artist's 90th birthday.
Curated by Botero himself, the exhibition comprises roughly 70 paintings, drawings and watercolours from the beginning of his career to present day. Highlights to look forward to include the 2020 piece ‘Profile of the Mona Lisa’, which has never been shown to the public until now.
