On July 22, the exhibition, “Four Centuries of Occidental Paintings from the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum Collection,” opened at the Oita Prefectural Art Museum (OPAM), with Oita Prefectural Governor Katsusada Hirose, TFAM Director Akira Gokita and other dignitaries attending the opening ceremony. Scheduled to run until September 6, the exhibition—which features 83 works produced from the 16th century Italian Renaissance to the 20th century—was held to commemorate the fifth anniversary of OPAM. Among the sponsors of the exhibition were the Oita Broadcasting System TV network and the daily Oita Godo News.
