Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center to Present Tomokazu Matsuyama: Morning Sun | June 20 - October 5, 2025

to Present

Tomokazu Matsuyama: Morning Sun 

June 20 - October 5, 2025

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 with a members and public opening reception on the opening day at 6:30pm, (RSVP via Museum website.)

 

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." 

 

In Morning Sun, Hopper depicts a woman sitting on her bed in the sun, alone in an empty room, wearing a plain orange dress and a simple, contemplative expression. In Morning Sun Dance, Matsu paints a solitary woman with a similarly meditative demeanor. However, her environment is far more richly layered: the room is filled with personal artifacts—dogs, magazines, and a luxurious couch—reflecting contemporary material life. Notably, the presence of dogs, while suggesting companionship, also references historical depictions such as Toutou, le bien aimé (1885) by Rosa Bonheur and A Nurse and a Child in an Elegant Foyer (1663) by Jacob Ochtervelt, in which dogs symbolized wealth and ownership. In Matsu's work, these animals subtly underscore solitude rather than alleviate it—suggesting not connection, but the heightened self-awareness of being alone. The woman's clothing fuses Western and Japanese motifs—a William Morris textile layered with traditional patterns—while a Sports Illustrated poster of Muhammad Ali nods to her alignment with diversity, strength, and modern identity. In contrast to Hopper's figure, who gazes outward toward the cityscape, Matsu's subject turns inward, facing her domestic space. This shift in gaze implies a broader narrative: solitude, once externalized and meditative, is now negotiated through personal space and cultural consumption. 

 

The exhibition will also feature Matsu's process drawings, which reveal how the artist engaged with Hopper's use of light, figuration, and abstraction. Two additional smaller paintings by Matsu also reinterpret Hopper's iconic figure in the orange dress—one from Hopper's original perspective, and the other from an external vantage point, as if observing the figure from the outside. The small painted compositions are Matsu's starting point, where he establishes the chromatic atmosphere and sensory experience he delivers. 

 

"This exhibition offers a fascinating dialogue between two artists from different eras, both grappling with the complexities of modern life and the experience of solitude," says Kathleen Motes Bennewitz, Executive Director of the Edward Hopper House Museum. "Matsu's vibrant and layered response to Hopper's work invites us to reconsider themes of isolation and introspection through a contemporary lens, highlighting the enduring relevance of Hopper's vision while embracing new perspectives."

Tomokazu Matsuyama: Morning Sun is made possible, in part, 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.

About Tomokazu Matsuyama: Born in 1976 in Gifu, Japan, Matsuyama is based in Brooklyn, New York. His work spans painting, sculpture, and installation, organically blending and reimagining diverse elements–such as ancient and modern, figurative and abstract, Eastern and Western. His art reflects his cross-cultural experiences and evolving nature of contemporary society in our information-driven world.  Major public art projects include the Bowery Mural (New York, USA, 2019), Hanao (JR Shinjuku Station East Square, Tokyo, 2020), and Wheels of Fortune (Meiji Shrine, Tokyo, 2020, part of the Jingu Gaien Art Festival), Chicago Public Library, Edgewater Branch mural (2025). Recent notable exhibitions include Mythologiques (Venice Biennale, 2024), MATSUYAMA Tomokazu: Fictional Landscape (Hirosaki Museum of Contemporary Art, 2023), and MATSUYAMA Tomokazu: Fictional Landscape (Shanghai Powerlong Museum, 2023); and Pop Forever, Tom Wesselmann &... (Foundation Louis Vuitton, Paris 2024-2025). His works are in the permanent collections of LACMA, Los Angeles, CA, USA; Asian Art Museum, San Francisco, CA, USA; The Pérez Art Museum, Miami, FL, USA; The Royal Family, Prince of Dubai, UAE; Bank of Sharjah Collection, Dubai, UAE; Microsoft Collection, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, AK, and more.

The Contemporary Modern Art Project (CAMP Gallery) presents 'Postcards From The Artist' running through June 27th


 

The Contemporary Art Modern Project (CAMP Gallery) announces its May exhibition: Postcards from The Artist with a group exhibition featuring works from: Milton Bowens, Laetitia Adam and Oluwatomisin Olabode. Each of these artists creates work explaining their journeys through life and the art world brimming with lived experience, ancestral and historical experiences inherited. The history of an individual is deeply connected to the stories passed down, the experiences encountered and witnessed and the interpreter of all of the above. Identity is a condition constantly influx, due to not just the external world and its ever revolving revolt of both history and perception, but also due to time, and the experiences that come with time. The optimistic child full of imagination and dreams can often become the bogged down adult witnessing not only the loss of innocence in imagination, but also the burden of an imposed identity. What is left is a quagmire of opinions, voices, disagreements, all swarming to remove the identity one lives, the history one lives. Responding to this, these artists lay before the viewer both history lived and inherited, as evidence of how that history, that postcard from the moment effects the artist and becomes the inspiration behind the work. This exhibition is on view May 23 - June 27, 2025.

Milton Bowens is an artist and a preservationist of both the history and the present of African Americans. Often using paraphernalia from archives of American history he reminds the viewer, informs the viewer of the treatment, history and experience of people enslaved in the U.S. His focus looks at the beginnings and explores how they still effect the present. Laetitia Adam Rabel exposes her reality as a woman in America, and how her race and ancestry mark her, and give her the ability to navigate, as best as she can, the labyrinth that is modern society. Deeply feminine her works bring forth and shine on her experiences with her life, her body and her artistic voice. Oluwatomisin Olabode based in Lagos, often toys with ideas of the grotesque, not only in his artistic voice, but also in his subject matter. Over stylized subjects confront the viewer usually in a one dimensional depiction, suggesting that the social eye can only perceive what is on the surface.

The art world is overflowing with rules and ideas of what is art, often from the perspective of the financial, which typically results in trends on what is unique, new, and catchy. Naturally this is fine, but it can overlook artists responding from an internal that cannot be limited or ignored by ‘market demand.’ Artists as the above make works that resonate with a myriad of shared aspects of the human condition - where the exact depictions may be different, they all do speak on being human with both lived and inherited history and how we all carry that weight.
