An adventure to see: the shape of things

The things we see in our daily lives have a shape and exist. In visual arts, shape is a fundamental element alongside color, composition, and material. Artists capture the shapes that exist in their own way, and sometimes give shape not only to things that have shape, but also to things that have no shape, creating them.
This exhibition explores the appeal of shape by looking at the shapes expressed in paintings and sculptures, approaching the artists' perspective.
