史密森尼亚洲艺术博物馆11月7日开幕《织与铸》：中国晚期织物与日本当代金属工艺同场对话
史密森尼学会旗下的美国国家亚洲艺术博物馆（National Museum of Asian Art）宣布，新展《织与铸：中国织物与日本金属工艺，来自 Shirley Z. Johnson 藏品》（Woven and Cast: Chinese Textiles and Japanese Metalwork from the Shirley Z. Johnson Collection）将于11月7日在华盛顿特区开幕，展期至2027年11月28日。
据博物馆9月30日发布的官方通告，展览把中国明清两代（15至19世纪）的晚期织物与20至21世纪的日本当代金属工艺并置展出，两种在时间、材料与产地各不相同的艺术形式，在质地与光泽上呈现出意想不到的共通之处。藏品来自慈善家 Shirley Z. Johnson（1940至2021）的捐赠：她是一名律师与自闭症倡导者，曾于2004至2012年、2017至2021年担任该馆理事，专门收藏日本金属工艺与明清织物。
博物馆馆长 Chase Robinson 表示，展览意在呈现刻意为之的意外感，展示跨越不同历史与艺术传统的材料之间出人意料的联系，并以此纪念 Johnson 的收藏眼光。该展也是博物馆为纪念美国建国250周年而推出的美国女性收藏家系列聚焦之一。
Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art Opens Woven and Cast on November 7: Late-Imperial Chinese Textiles Meet Contemporary Japanese Metalwork
The Smithsonian's National Museum of Asian Art in Washington, D.C., will open Woven and Cast: Chinese Textiles and Japanese Metalwork from the Shirley Z. Johnson Collection on November 7, running through November 28, 2027.
According to the museum's September 30 announcement, the exhibition brings together late-imperial Chinese textiles and contemporary Japanese metalwork, two art forms separated by time, material and place, to explore overlooked similarities: displayed side by side, the textiles and metalworks reveal unexpected commonalities in texture and luminosity. The works come from the collection of philanthropist Shirley Z. Johnson (1940-2021), a lawyer, autism advocate and Washington, D.C. resident who served on the museum's board from 2004 to 2012 and from 2017 to 2021, and who collected 20th- and 21st-century Japanese metalwork alongside Chinese textiles of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the 15th through 19th centuries.
'With this exhibition, we aim for the intentionally unexpected, showcasing the surprising connections that can be found across materials from different histories and artistic traditions,' said Chase Robinson, the museum's director. The exhibition joins the museum's series spotlighting American women collectors in honor of the United States' 250th anniversary.
