Special Exhibition 2025 "Grief and Laughter in Disasters―Japanese Memories and the Heart―"
For centuries, people in Japan have lived with a range of disasters—earthquakes, floods, fires, and more. At times they were plunged into deep sorrow; at others they sought to overcome hardship with humor and satire. This exhibition introduces the thoughts and ingenuity of people in response to disasters, as well as the emotional interplay of 'grief' and 'laughter,' through Edo-period disaster records and materials such as namazu-e (catfish prints).
