The Shizuoka City Museum of Art is celebrating its 15th anniversary with a major exhibition:
“Paul Klee – Constellations of Creativity.”
This special event showcases around 60 works by Swiss master Paul Klee (1879–1940), alongside 50 pieces by other leading modern artists, including Kandinsky, Picasso, and Miró.
