Members get an exclusive look at the exhibition before it opens to the public.
Members enjoy a full day of early access to Takeda Hideo’s Genpei: Defying Authority. The exhibition features the artist’s best-known work, a series of twenty-two screenprints that radically reimagines the late twelfth-century Genpei civil war (1180–85) between two rival clans in Japan.
