Exhibition: TOMOKAZU MATSUYAMA: MORNING SUN

by

Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center is pleased to present Tomokazu Matsuyama: Morning Sun, an exhibition of paintings and works on paper by the contemporary Japanese-American artist Tomokazu Matsuyama (Matsu).
The exhibition offers a contemporary tribute to Edward Hopper’s iconic 1952 painting Morning Sun (Columbus Museum of Art), delving into the complexities of solitude and life in a globalized, consumer-driven world—recurring themes in Matsu’s work. To engage with Hopper’s themes, Matsu intricately weaves together diverse visual references that reflect his cross-cultural background and observations of contemporary society. The exhibition will be on view from June 20 through October 5, 2025.
​
The exhibition centers around Matsu’s new large-scale painting Morning Sun Dance. Of the work that inspired his painting, Matsu says, “While Hopper’s Morning Sun captures a moment of introspective stillness within the psychological landscape of mid-century urban life, his treatment of solitude, light, and constructed space continues to influence my own approach to thinking about isolation as well as my approach to painting.”Tomokazu Matsuyama: Morning Sun  is made possible, in part, by support provided by SRI Fine Art Services, and funds provided by the New York Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
