Ann Veronica Janssens Makes Japanese Solo Debut at Fondation d'entreprise Hermès in Tokyo

Ann Veronica Janssens is having her inaugural solo exhibition in Japan, presented by the Fondation d'entreprise Hermès. The exhibition, named 5 Chome 4-1 Ginza, is currently displayed at the foundation's location in Ginza, Tokyo. Born in Folkestone, UK, in 1956, Janssens is a Belgian artist based in Brussels who has been active globally since the late 1970s. Initially working with basic materials like plywood, glass, and concrete, she began to integrate light, sound, and artificial haze in the 1990s. Her artistic repertoire includes sculpture, installation, video, photography, and stage design for contemporary dance. The exhibition showcases new site-specific works, marking her first solo showcase in Japan and reinforcing the foundation's dedication to featuring international artists.
