As part of the Fondation Louis Vuitton’s 'Hors-les-murs (Beyond the Walls)' program, which presents its collection at Espace Louis Vuitton locations in Tokyo, Munich, Venice, Beijing, Seoul, and Osaka, this exhibition reflects the foundation’s mission to share art with broader audiences worldwide through international outreach projects.

This extension offers a valuable opportunity not only for first-time visitors but also for those considering a return visit. Guided tours by museum staff will be held during the exhibition period to deepen visitors’ understanding of the artworks. All are warmly welcome.
