Japan Modern Poster

This spring’s major exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark showcases a rich collection of Japanese graphic design. Visitors can experience a remarkable series of iconic posters from Japan that are not only visually striking, but also thought-provoking and often witty, and that tell a story about Japan’s historical and cultural development from the 1950s to the present day.

Japan Modern Poster is the largest exhibition in the museum’s history devoted to Japanese poster design. It has been organised in collaboration with the DNP Foundation for Cultural Promotion, which has selected and lent the 110 works on display from its extensive collection.
