From Curator Aaron Rio:
Below, please find a complete list of recent and upcoming changes to the Japanese and Korean galleries, including everything from minor rotations and to exhibitions. Moving forward, I will try to do a better job of alerting you to these changes, but also please never hesitate to ask if you are planning a tour and concerned that something may come off view.
Sincerely yours,
Aaron
