The Museum of Contemporary Art hosts Yasuko Toyoshima's first museum exhibition focusing on interest in different social systems. The artist who has been exploring the themes of identity and the relationship between the individual and society since 1990, reinterprets in a completely personal way the concepts relating to the role of school education, art and the economy that man has internalized. In an era dominated by a sense of stagnation, the artist's work, deeply dedicated to the exploration of the "individual", assumes even more importance. Through a roundup of works, from the first to the most recent ones, the itinerary offers a complete overview of Toyoshima's work.
